Probably is the better plan, looking for tc-arch = x86. |

Well ppc doesn't have SSE but I think the SSE stuff is limited to x86 arch |
| 11 |
anyway, All AMD64 cpu that I know of have SSE support, but there are many |
| 12 |
people running Gentoo non machines that does *not* support SSE, like |
| 13 |
Athlon-Thunderbirds. I was one of them before replacing the main box, and I'm |
| 14 |
still using the tbird for G/FBSD. |
| 15 |
I know of people running it on 300MHz P2s (without SSE, too), so better avoid |
| 16 |
assuming that "nobody is running on a i686".. there still are i586 out there |
| 17 |
(and distcc or binary package creation from another machine can do the trick |
| 18 |
for them usually). |
