11 Gentoo will take advantage of whatever the Linux Kernel takes
12 advantage of. Gentoo will utilize all 8 cores as efficiently as the
13 Linux kernel allows, and you will be able to run everything under 64
14 bits. I would recommend using the amd64 media and stages when
15 installing Gentoo onto your system.
