Read this for a comparison in performance for 32 bit, and 64 bit linux: http://bingouv.blogspot.com/2008/08/desktop-linux-performance-comparison32.html .
To summarize, you will notice the difference between 32 bit and 64 bit for CPU intensive tasks. But it won't change the world. This comparison is based on Fedora-9.
thanks
