This belongs in the operating system section. No it is not worth it for you to get windows xp64 unless you have specific 64 bit apps you wish to run.

well I reinstalled windows like 3 weeks ago and had a choice between the two, and I went with 32 cause I could get more drivers for it

yes its better. its basically the same thing, except everything is 32-bit now.

as of now, no its not. you basically have to build a whole new computer compatible for it and a lot of the softwares present are still 32 bit. so you wont get much functionality.

Agreed. Finding drivers is still difficult for x64. I'd wait for Vista before upgrading your OS.

Vista.. umm I would waite a little longer

I agree with all of you. But Vista!! Lets waite for some reviews and service packs and then Upgrade

x32b still a lot better ther x64b. It's more compatible with everything. Applications, drivers etc.

I agree, i installed x64 on my computer and i had a hard time getting ethernet drivers for my motherboard. And alot of my other hardware didnt even have 64-bit drivers.

Also, i ran 3DMark06 and my score was actually lower than in windows XP Pro x32!
