Not so much...

32 Bit OS can only handle so much ram...

My 32 bit machines even with some backend tags (updated versions of the old /3gb switch) Your renders will never use over 2gbs of ram effectively. A 64 bit machine that can multi process will handle everything much cleaner.

Most of my editing is done on a quadcore with 8 gbs ram, running vista 64, with dual nvidia gfx... I'm pretty proud of my little setup and how much it handles for me.
