Its been a while since I had been to VirtualBoox.org and the download page doesn't seemed to have changed at all.  

I need to setup a Windows 7 VM (guest) on my 2015 MacBook Pro (host) with the Intel i7 64 bit processor.  

1. I am guessing the one labeled AMD will work...correct?

2.  I read a lot of posts about performance.  Its a mixed bag. Some say it's good other say its terrible.  Are there any settings/config changes I need to make to get the best experience?

Thanks 

Pete

Hello.

AMD in the mac book pro I think is related to Video Card. Cpu will be still Intel.

Intel / AMD being x86_64 will work without problems.

Not sure of the sites you mention, but is always upto .. if you will have a cpu intensive VM, be sure to give resources (multi core, ram), other than that will be either wait, or get a faster CPU.

Alvaro.
