Yeah, x64 is indeed faster. I am using Windows 7 x64 and they are very fast. However, this depends a lot on your RAM. If you have more than 4GB of RAM, then changing to x64 is certainly recommended. Notice that some things won't work well on x64 systems. For example Flash Player doesn't work for x64 Internet Explorer, although that's not a problem for me because I never use IE.
