I heard though that newer (Linux) > versions of Intel Compute Stick would have 64bit UEFI but I'm not sure. The Intel Compute sticks can boot both 32 and 64 bit. It doesn't matter if you have the Windows or Linux version. (The difference between the is the amount of RAM and onboard storage, the firmware is the same) I have the Windows one and it boots 64 bit just fine. You can select it in the settings. (OS setting: Windows=32 bit, Linux=64 bit) Jakob
