The CPU will not understand AMD64 instructions, so they need to be translated to the host's native CPU instruction set. This results in a reduction of performance. Two options exist for doing this: QEMU and Bochs. e.g. it's possible to run Linux on an 8-bit AVR (ATMega1284P) computer: http://hackaday.com/2012/03/28/building-the-worst-linux-pc-ever/ In that case, code to emulate an ARM machine was programmed into the AVR chip. Given that MIPS machines are generally both more expensive and slower than modern AMD64 systems, one has to question the logic in such an endeavour except maybe to prove it can be done. -- Stuart Longland (aka Redhatter, VK4MSL) I haven't lost my mind... ...it's backed up on a tape somewhere.
