https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/ch02s01.en.html

and

https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch02s01.en.html

will tell you that the difference is whether the CPU has the
amd64 (also called x86_64) instruction set.

So machine 2 with the t7300 will definitely run the amd64 release.

Next you need to look at the manufacturer's documentation. In
this case, Intel:

https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/35300/intel-pentium-processor-e5300-2m-cache-2-60-ghz-800-mhz-fsb.html
says that the e5300 has the 64 bit instruction set, so it will
also run the amd64 release.

and

https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/30774/intel-celeron-processor-540-1m-cache-1-86-ghz-533-mhz-fsb.html
says that the M540 also has that, so will also run amd64.

All of these CPUs should run Debian amd64.
