In fact it's completely ridicule to want to run a 64 bit OS when you're mainly using your PC for gaming purposes, mail, and do some surfing.
On the other hand .... running a 64 bit OS on a quad core, +12 GB RAM and the appropriate programs allows you to rip a full DVD movie into high quality AVI format in less then 15 minutes.
Also it allows you to run several VMs full speed.
Would I personally buy such PC for home use if I wouldn't get it from my firm? Nope.
My 'home' PC is still a AMD Athlon64 3500+ running XP32/Vista32, that's still more then enough for private use.
