... On the other hand, it\'ll give you no advantage at all (the actual climate model is 32-bit code running within a 64-bit framework).

Ohh nooo!!! :) I\'ll crunch 32-bit style then i suppose. It\'s just that it will be so much harder for me to beat my mate now. Thanks for the quick and prompt response nevertheless. Much appreciated. ;)

Hi all

First post so be gentle Ok. :)

Long story short; I am one of the geezers that would much appreciate being able to fully utilize my AMD64 processor on this project. I am a BOINC/CPDN rookie, and I have tried reading all over this site to find out if full support for 64bit is available. I just saw that most of this thread\'s posts are quite old now, and I also noted that there are 64 bit applications (don\'t fully know what an \"application\" is in this sense) now.

Why am I so interested in utilizing my computer to the full? Because I\'ll be competing with a friend and he don\'t have 64 bit OS, so I\'d have an advantage here if it works. So.

Does 64 bit (i.e., 64bit proccessor, operating system, and BOINC client) work now days?
