Just as an FYI...
I just matched an AMD 64 3500+ on an Abit AV8. I was originally planning to run the 64
bit release of Fedora Core 3 but found compiling music apps to be painful on the 64 bit
platform.
Instead I am running the 32 bit release of Planet CCRMA Fedora Core 3 with their Edge
kernel. Everything is singing beautifully with no problems in stability. As far as I can
tell, the motherboard is fully supported with the stock FC3 release although I haven't
tried SATA drives.

I was just looking at prices of the XP vs. 64 and for
a 3000+ the cost
difference is only $15 now. Of course, that doesn't take into account
the cost of the MB but I wouldn't expect that to be a whole lot extra
either. Even running in 32 bit mode the 64 is probably worth the
extra few $ since you do get some goodies with it even in 32 bit mode.

I have only had a few problems with 64 bit mode on Gentoo. However,
ardour isn't very stable in 64 bit mode. How does it do in 32 bit
mode? I get crashes 80% of the time when I create stereo tracks.
Usually I can open the project back up and the track is there, but
sometimes it crashes on open and I have to start over. It also
freezes when I close and choose "just quit" when it wants to save the
project most of the time. Also, when I import wav files it doesn't
usually draw the wav, I just see a straight line; closing the project
and opening it again fixes that, or deleting the region and importing
again works right.
Are these things normal in 32 bit as well? For me these are standard
operating procedures I have to deal with. I was thinking about
switching to 32 bit mode to see if they go away and I have a more
stable system.

No, it's very stable for me.

Ardour on my system works pretty fine(v.good:) on ver ardour 0.9beta19 of
ardour. and Kernel 2.6.8 on 32bit processing. If on your sysit worked fine
on the 32 bit system then it might be problem with compatibilaty of 64 bit
platform . I ve seen some other ppl also face the 64 bit problem.
