Why:

Closes #13794

What's being changed:

As mentioned by the member of GitHub Actions team, I've specified that Linux and Windows GitHub hosted runners have amd64 architecture and macOS runners have Intel x86_64 architecture.

Although the GitHub Actions member has specified that all runners are amd64 I've purposely written architecture as Intel x86_64 for macOS runners because macOS has only two archs : Intel x86_64 & arm64

Check off the following:

  • I have reviewed my changes in staging.
  • For content changes, I have completed the self-review checklist.

I feel that simply saying 2-core CPU (x86_64) and 3-core CPU (x86_64) would be better. Both "amd64" and "Intel x86_64" mean the same thing.

@thispsj Thanks so much for opening a PR! I'll get this triaged for review ⚡ I see that this was triaged a while ago 🙈 Sorry about the delay @thispsj! We've got lots of folks taking holiday over the summer, so reviews are taking some additional time. We appreciate your patience 💛
