you can do this,
cat /proc/cpuinfo
Then, you can find the model of cpu, google it.

I have been tied up with other work and Holidays. Now back to some server work that is long overdue. I lost an old server yesterday so it is crunch time.
I believe my new platform is suppose to be an x86_64. The order form says 64 bit.
I booted Centos 6.3 i386 liveCD to check the system out before an install.
uname -i
reports i386
dmidecode -t processor
reports Characteristics of 64 bit capable. The processor is an AMD duo-core Opteron.
I thought that in a prior thread I found that booting with an i386 live CD and using uname would confirm the processor type. It seems not.
I am going to go with the various evidence and start a x86_64 install, but what is with uname?
thanks
