EE 3.73 was released in February 2005 and 506 in June.
Officially the first was Xeon Nocona in June of 2004.
Also, it was confirmed recently, SL7QB (Pentium 4 3.2) can work in 64 mode too - unofficially. |

It looks like Inel and AMD are all start their 64bit x86 processor from server grade.

But if it can't run 64-bit OS, is it Really 64-bit (ie. Windows 8/8.1) ?
I know I'm being picky
PS. All Pentium 4 6xx series CPU's have 64-bit technology enabled. |
