Visual Studio 2010 picking the download version? (X86 / x64)
Generally wondering if there are multiple versions of Visual Studio 2010 to download. I can only find x86 and not sure if this is the version I want for Win7 x64 [which I am running]
Are there multiple versions available, or a single x86 version that just installs the x64 components?

There will be no x64 version of VS2010. For some explanation take a look at Rico Mariani's blog post .

As far as I know, there is no 64 bit version of Visual Studio 2010.
See http://news.softpedia.com/news/Don-039-t-Hold-Your-Breath-for-64-bit-Visual-Studio-113943.shtml .
According to the article "Customers are better off working with a development platform in 32-bit emulation mode on top of 64-bit Windows. And, not to mention 64-bit support outside of Visual Studio 2010, the developer lesson is don" Don't hold your breath for x64 VS ".
Not the answer you want.

So, there is no lift from a 64 bit compiler or IDE.
