It might be late but Google had sensed the necessity of a 64 Bit version of Chrome and after releasing several beta builds, the Google Chrome 64 bit version is finally available for download.
Taking advantage of 64 bit processors, the new version of Chrome brings in many improvements over the older 32 bit version. These improvements are mainly related to speed, stability and security.
One of the most noticeable improvements in the 64 bit version of Chrome is high-DPI support and due to this Chrome can render text much more sharper on high definition displays. Apart from this, the new version of Google Chrome also includes numerous other major improvements and bug fixes.
According to Google:
64-bit Chrome offers many benefits for speed, stability and security. Our measurements have shown that the native 64-bit version of Chrome has improved speed on many of our graphics and media benchmarks. For example, the VP9 codec that’s used in High Definition YouTube videos shows a 15% improvement in decoding performance. Stability measurements from people opted into our Canary, Dev and Beta 64-bit channels confirm that 64-bit rendering engines are almost twice as stable as 32-bit engines when handling typical web content. Finally, on 64-bit, our defense in depth security mitigations such as Partition Alloc are able to far more effectively defend against vulnerabilities that rely on controlling the memory layout of objects.
Currently the 64 bit version of Google Chrome is only available for Windows operating systems, which includes Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 7. You can download the latest Google Chrome 64 bit installer for your windows PC from the link provided below.
Last but not the least, you should be aware that many extensions from the Chrome web store are not compatible with the 64 bit version of Google Chrome. However you need not worry as the developers of these extensions have promised a fix as soon as possible.
