Is Amazon Fire TV Cube 32 bit or 64 bit that has better processor and performance

Hey guys, I just wanna know if it's way slightly faster that has already being compared to the Fire TV Stick 2nd gen with 32-bit processor and performance. Especially with Fire TV 1st gen and Fire TV Stick 1st gen that are 32-bit processor and performance too. Can you explain this, please? Cause I just wanna see the details for what's going on with the specs that has been released in 4 months ago.

http://www.aftvnews.com/amazon-fire-tv-cube-benchmarks-faster-than-the-fire-tv-3-but-with-a-catch/
Quad core ARM Cortex-A53 CPU up to 1.5GHz. Supports 32-bit apps.
Ever heard of "Google"?
Well, yes I have. And also, like I'm gonna say it again in a different way than the same, is there a CPU with 64-bit that's inside and uses 32-bit apps as well?

32-bit
I know a bit of an old thread, but since I'm looking at some amazon fire tvs.
fire tv (gen 2) (note latest is gen 3) - Amazon AFTS (Android 5.1.1, API 22) - arm64-v8a
fire tv stick 4k (latest mar 2019) - Amazon AFTMM (Android 7.1.2, API 25) - armeabi-v7a
fire tv cube (latest mar 2019) - Amazon AFTA (Android 7.1.2, API 25) - armeabi-v7a
I'm surprised the older device that can't have OS upgraded is the arm64 bit arch!

If you look at the actual specs themselves, the SOCs for the 3rd Gen TV, Cube and the 4k Stick are 64-bit.
The OS/API itself is limited to 32-bit.
One explanation: https://androidpctv.com/comparative-mediatek-mt8695/
One can Google for more sources.
I think Amazon did this intentionally, so they didn't have to maintain an OS for two different architectures. Once they depreciate/discontinue the 2nd Gen Fire TV Stick, I bet they will migrate the entire Fire TV OS to 64-bit.

Should I upgrade to Amazon FireTV Stick Gen 2 if I already have Gen 1?

Hello,
I was wondering if I should buy the Fire Stick Gen 2 as I have heard it has a quad-core CPU whereas the Gen 1 has a dual-core CPU as well as other upgrades to the hardware. Would it be worth the upgrade or should I stick to my Gen 1?
Thank you.
I still use the original Amazon Fire TV (the flat square models) and the 2nd Gen one with 4K the best Amazon ever released IMO.
Also I update sticks for family and friends the thing I notice with the older ones is the speed they start up etc, but once streaming they seem the same. If what you have works why change

Need Help Finding Firmware Build and Updating My Android Head Unit

So I got a head unit around last year for my BMW 125i (2014) and I had some issues with it I would really like to iron out. So the autolink app doesn't display in full screen, rather in a cropped resolution and I could not manage to fix. The unit firmware itself is rather clunky and slow to boot and navigate, and what makes it even harder is I can't find the spec sheet, other than what I was told by the seller. Specs are as listed:
-Qualcomm Snapdragon CPU (4-core)
- DDR3 2GB RAM
-32GB ROM
Here's the link I managed to track it down to
10.25 inch Screen BMW 1 2 3 4 Series F30 F31 F34 F32 F33 F36 F20 F21 F23 2013 2014 2015 2016 2016 2017 2018 2019 Android GPS Navigation Bluetooth System - Kakadi
Perfect Integration with Your Original BMW Infotainment System. Original PDC, Camera, etc, ALL supported
