Hi
I have a 32 bit version and a 64 bit version of (mostly stable) Gentoo on the
same PC and when playing gl-117 I get (assuming everything is set on the
highest quality in gl-117) around 15 - 20 FPS on the 32 bit Gentoo and around
30 - 40 FPS on 64 bit Gentoo. This is not too representative, especially
since not all libs and progs are exactly the same version on both
installations, but I still think this shows 64 bit CAN make a big difference,
depending on what you plan to do with your new system.
