I believe it is 64 bit... this should be your product documentation: <a href="http://www.intel.com/Assets/en_US/PDF/datasheet/306751.pdf">http://www.intel.com/Assets/en_US/PDF/datasheet/306751.pdf</a><br><br>see as well: <a href="http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/products/server/processor/xeon7000/technical-documents#11">http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/products/server/processor/xeon7000/technical-documents#11</a><br>

Ok .. just purchased a used Dell PowerEdge 6850 on Ebay. 4 CPUs at 3.16<br>
GHz. I purchased it to make a computational box out of it ... wanting the 8<br>
cores and lots of memory.<br>
<br>
Now ... I put VMWare ESxi 4.0 on it and was installing a 64 bit version of<br>
Scientific Linux. During the install ... it tells me that I can not install<br>
a 64 bit version ... and that I should install a 32 bit version.<br>
<br>
The CPU details are listed below ... I THOUGHT these were 64 bit CPUs ...<br>
did I mess up?<br>
<br>
3.16GHZ INTEL XEON-MP 667MHZ SOCKET 604 1MB SL84U<br>
<br>
Thoughts and comments welcome. Thanks in advance.<br>
