x86 generally refers to 32-bit Intel. I doubt anybody deploys 32-bit OSes these days (maybe they do?). Consider writing this as follows. If 32-bit is still supported, I'd use both: x86, both 32- and 64-bit.

I honestly don't know if we support both 32 and 64-bit. @amiramm did you want us to make this distinction in the docs?
