Hello, A major problem of intel c++ please read : http://www.intel.com/software/products/compilers/techtopics/gettingstarted.pdf it produces only 64 bits EMT64 code. that is x86-64 + 1 extra useless instruction. However that code won't run at your AMD hardware at all. Just at 64 bits intel hardware. so intel c++ can only compile 32 bits for you.
