Hi manok,

The difference between 32 bit (x86) and 64bit (x64) cpus - The difference between 64 and 32 bit processors

The difference between x86 and x64 Windows - Windows versus Windows or 32-bit versus 64bit - How much does the transition from 32-bit to 64-bit matter? - Softpedia

IMO if your not going to have any driver or software compatiblity issues, you should go for x64. It is faster and better security.

It really all depends onw hat you do.
Most software has support for it now.

The occasional piece of software that isn't properly developed will cause you some problems....such as phone software
