Yes, there are differences, but the fact remains that Intel had to develop its implementation to mimic AMD64[1]. 1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86-64#History_of_Intel_64 "Intel found itself in the position of adopting the architecture which AMD had created as an extension to Intel's own x86 processor line."
