It does not matter if one 32bit and the other 64bit unless you using a 64bit operating system. A sempron is 32bit and it still operates at a lower speed then a celron but the sempron will perform just as good if not better then the celron. In some cases a sempron is better then P4's. It all depends on exactly what two cpus you comparing.

Anouther example 3.0ghz p4 64bit(630) performs almost no different the a 3.0ghz p4 32bit(530).

What am trying to say is being 64 bit has nothing to do with why it performs better then a intel of the same speed.
