Modern Intel processors use the amd64 (aka x86_64) architecture.
Intel’s Itanium architecture (IA-64) never really took off, and was
not supported by the consumer versions of Windows (other than XP x64).

(Not to mention 32-bit processors are sometimes called i386…i686,
where the i stands for Intel, and those processors were also
manufactured by AMD and others)
