Do yourself a favour and disable the 920m, it's only some 20-40% faster [2](linux numbers may be way off and may favour intel) than the HD 520 and will help you only sometimes get something playable - if you game at all, that is. However it would suck energy disproportionally, both electrical and mental.

To be more specific, the architecture of the i5 is "amd64" (as it is called
in Debian, because AMD first came up with it, while Intel was playing
around with Itanium). Amd64 is also sometimes known as as x86_64.

Yes, it's confusing. See [1] for the whole kaboodle.
