One is for 64 bit programs and the other is for 32 bit programs. Don't worry, nothing's wrong.

Sometimes installing 32b programs outside of PF(x86) is fine, in fact to be honest I've found no problems doing this, I really find it pointless for them to have that even there.

x86 is 32bit programs and the other one is the 64bit.
