Processor question

[Mike Dockery]

Greetings,

I have been a user of Linux since 1994, but most of the linux distros 
seem to be getting away from freedom... which is why I chose it in the 
first place.  They seem intent on forcing things that do not work well 
(like pulseaudio and nouveau) on everyone.  Freedom of choice is always 
best.

My question is:  Should I try the amd64 version of FreeBSD with my Intel 
Core i7-2600 processor or should I use the i386?

I hope to give FreeBSD a try later this month.

Thanks,

Mike Dockery
