Using AMD chips, 64 bit mode is significantly faster than 32 bit mode (20 to 30 percent, depending on the code), due to the extra registers. I don't think this is the case for Intel chips. We run all our 64 bit desktops in 64 bit mode, and it's not too hard to get closed source 32 bit apps working.
What kinds of issues do you run into, if any, getting 32 bit apps running on a 64 bit system?
For example, if I run 64 bit on my Venice-based game box, has anyone experience getting WoW to run in Cedega on that?
