I install visual studio 2013 on a x64, and i get with is components from 2005 and a whole bunch for x86 ?!

Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 redistributable x86

It also , if ii am not mistaken gives me a version of visuall studio 2008 and visual studio 2010 aswell as tooling and files only associated for those versions. There was no option to negate this. Do i really need all of this?
