How can I check if my CPU is AMD64 compatible?

I'm downloading both versions of Ubuntu 12.04 at this moment. I'd like to install AMD64 on my portable, even though it's an Intel machine. Is there a website (or another way) where I can check compatibility?

Acer Aspire 5745G-724G50Mnks, Intel i7 with 4Gb RAM

Acer Aspire 5745G-724G50MNKS is 64 bit so you can run the amd64 download on it. I use the serial number (7545G) to google it and try to find items that included the architecture. Shops sell it with Windows 64 installed.

You will run into problems: looks like it is not 100% compatible with Ubuntu since I also found a bug report on this machine. It has amd64 stated as architecture so you can use amd64 on this.
