It looks like you go for the specific release if your processor is in this list: https://github.com/zen-browser/desktop/blob/main/docs/requirements.md |

The "specific" release is compiled for newer x86 processors (see this list) only. This may have some performance benefits on supported systems. The "Generic" release works on pretty much any x86 CPU. This is the case for all supported x86 platforms. |
