By 64bit do you mean the memory interface? A 64bit memory interface isn't very good though, 128bit is better and 256bit is the best. If you still want a 64bit interface, then this is about as good as you can get.

almost any nvidia or ati cArd will work with window x64, just so to ati or nvidias site and get the 64 bit virsion, most likely still in beta, the down side to windows x64 is you NEED a 64 bit procsser, and it is very buggy, and some divices such as pirinters, cameras, ect dont have drivers made for it yet

good choice for the most part, xpx64 is so buggy and lacks drivers, and sometimes slow preformance 32 bit programs :knock: :knock:

A good mid to high range card would be the nVidia GeForce 6800GS. Costs about 200USD as far as I know.
