Not that I can think of.

My experience with 64-bit Linux is that it doesn't run 
noticeably better or faster than 32-bit Linux installed on 
a 64-bit machine, but it has the added drawback of 
incomplete hardware and software support.

My main box is Intel Core2Duo-based but I run 32-bit Kubuntu 
by choice.  No regrets.
