I have both i386 and x86_64 version of FC3 installed on both an ASUS SK8V 
(Opteron 140) and a Compaq R3000z (Athlon64) and they both work well on both 
systems (it took some fiddling to get the 1920x1200 display to work on the 
R3000z but it does work).

The OpenOffice.org application is the major 32 bit application that has not 
been ported to 64 bit yet.  The 32 bit libraries, etc. are provided with the 
x86_64 system since you can run 32 bit applications and this is provided for 
compatibility.
