* x64 (64-bit) allows for emulating more than 2 GB of RAM on some later machines and using larger soundfonts with FluidSynth, at a slight performance loss.
* The regular variant (**86Box**) is recommended; it is compiled with the ``--preset=regular`` CMake flag, enabling the default feature set.
* On **Linux**, select the correct architecture for your system, as most distributions lack x64-to-x86 and ARM64-to-ARM32 backwards compatibility by default.
* Release versions of 86Box are based on this variant.
* On **macOS**, **Universal** supports both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs.
* The debug variant (**86Box-Debug**) is compiled with the ``--preset=debug`` CMake flag, which provides debug symbols and no optimizations, to allow for debugging with ``gdb`` and other tools.
* The New Recompiler is always used on Apple Silicon due to its ARM architecture, even if the Old Recompiler is selected.
* This variant runs slower than the standard one due to the removal of optimizations and addition of debugging features.
.. note:: Debug variants have been moved to a `special page on the 86Box website <//86box.net/debug.html>`_ as of July 18th 2022 due to constant misuse.

* These variants' aggressive microarchitecture-specific optimizations provided very little performance improvement (within margin of error on modern CPUs) while introducing bugs and other incorrect behavior.
* Optimized binaries can still be produced by :doc:`compiling 86Box from source <buildguide>` with the ``--preset=optimized`` CMake flag, which enables optimizations for the build host's CPU microarchitecture. No support will be provided for those.
..
Optimized builds (**86Box-Optimized**) are :ref:`standard builds <dev/builds:Standard>` which have been optimized for use with a specific CPU family on the host machine. Optimized builds provide slight performance improvements, especially on older or low-end hosts; however, the aggressive optimizations employed **may result in bugs** not present on standard builds.
There are many different optimized binaries available for each build, with each one corresponding to a CPU family. The table below lists most CPUs currently supported by optimized builds, along with the respective binaries you should use with them, as well as their codenames (as shown on an identification tool such as `CPU-Z <http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/cpu-z.html>`_).
.. note:: Using the wrong optimized binary for your CPU will result in poor performance and/or crashes.
