Hardware Specs Reported in Dispatches
But now I'm interested in 64-bit. I have Phenom II 965. I've read few pages of this topic and it seems to be pretty damn hard to get the kernel running in 64. So, what blocks the 64 bit? Is the kernel compiled only for 32/i386?
I have wonderfully working Lion 10.7.3 on my AMD Phenom II 965 x4. 32-bit only though, but no need to worry about crashing or random kernel panics, everything works. Finder from DP2.

| Lion with AMD “Your processor is not bulldozer, there is no kernel with 64bit support for previous AMD bulldozer CPU (i.e. athlon, phenom..) Yea, I know that.

| 10.7.2 works but not 10.7.3 or 10.7.4 “So if I have this right you are running your cpu at 3GHz, if that is correct then you have the busratio number right.
