Upgrading the browser's bit count has made it faster and more secure, according to Google.Google announced in June that it had upgraded its Chrome browser for Windows 7 and Windows 8 to 64-bit, and now that version of the browser is available to the public in beta.
The 64-bit Chrome for Windows build first arrived in preview builds for developers last month, and this is the first time the general public has had access to a steady build.
The beta is available now from Google's official Chrome releases page.

"The new version replaces the existing version while preserving all your settings and bookmarks, so there's no need to uninstall a current installation of Chrome," Google's release blog promises.
However it's important to remember that as a beta version of Chrome, this 64-bit release is likely far from stable.
If you do encounter any bugs you can let Google know on its Chromium code page.
In the meantime, the less adventurous out there might want to wait for a full, official release of Google's 64-bit Chrome for Windows, which is more than likely right around the corner.
