[wplug] Need advice on 64 bit

[Coutch, Robert]

Hi all,
 
I just got my hands on a used socket 939 motherboard.
Now I have questions.
 
I'm trying to decide between a single core and dual core processor.
Any suggestions?
 
My biggest question is: Should I run 32 bit Linux or 64 bit.
 
As you probably know I like to game on my system so I'll need Nvidia
drivers to play my 32 bit games.
Any advice here? I sure don't want to hurt performance of these games
running on my system.
 
How do 32 bit programs run on 64 bit Linux and how well does this work?
 
 
Thanks for any info or suggestions,
 
Bob
