EM64T is Intel's 64-bit processor architecture. It uses 64 bit registers
so it gets around the 4GB limit. It is very similar to AMD64
architecture and fully supported via the amd64 port. If You have an
EM64T machine use the amd64 version of FreeBSD.

EM64T uses 64-bit wide registers and addressing, and can talk to 4GB
of RAM natively. Older processors may still support 4GB of physical
RAM using the PSE/PSE-36 CPU extensions, but are still using 32-bit
registers.

IA-64 was Intel's 64-bit architecture. EM64T is Intel's attempt to make AMD64
