I hate to agree with Karl (well, not for his reason)
but I have an Athlon64 machine with 64-bit and 32-bit Fedora-7 on it.

Admittedly I don't use this machine much,
and certainly not for anything that could be called number-crunching,
but I haven't noticed any real difference between the two systems.
