For years, AMD has been talking about the positive impact that 64-bit will have on games. Honestly, we never bought it; games are still a couple of years away from breaking the 2GB process limitation under present day 32-bit Windows. Despite our lack of belief, AMD still did their best to convey the message that gamers would be given a better experience in a 64-bit environment.

More registers, better memory handling (that is of the memory you have on board), better graphics handling, built in firewall, etc .... I know, the last at first look doesn't appear to help gaming, but .... Playing online games, you need a good firewall. And having a firewall supported by the CPU is a step in the right direction.
