I use "cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep 'model name'", to find the model name
and look it up on Wikipedia or Google for the manufacturer data sheet.
64-bit support is often called "AMD64", or "x86-64" by non-AMD

In general you would install 64bit amd64 to modern 64bit
architecture/machine - it might be intel or amd.

AMD64 is for 64bit Amd and Intel processors,
64-bit Intel *x86* processors. There was once another 64-bit
architecture called ia64 used by Intel "Itanium" processors, not
compatible with amd64.
i386 is a 32bit system for
old pre64
AMD64 is for 64bit Amd and Intel processors, i386 is a 32bit system for
old pre64 architectures. So even though a 32bit will work on a 64bit
system I have yet to find a good reason for doing so. The other way
around wouldn't work.

...Just curiosity: I installed debian-8.7.1-i386-netinst.iso, but my machine is
an AMD, and everything went fine. So what's that difference for?
