I can't comment on running my own 64-bit box in 32-bit mode, since I've never 
done it, but in 64-bit mode, my 3500 (2.2GHz) appears to be yawning during 
HDTV playback much of the time, actually throttling back to 1GHz fairly 
regularly (though there's often a hiccup when it has to throttle back up, so 
if I were using it as an actual frontend, I think I'd want to disable 
throttling, or at least tweak it somehow).
