That's the question everyone would like to know the answer to, but no one (or at
least no one that's going to tell) knows.

No, a 32-bit processor can do anything a 64-bit processor can do. Currently
32-bit processors probably do it faster too, even though it takes twice as many
instructions or more to accomplish the same thing. Eventually 64-bit computers
will be faster though. It will just mean faster chess programs, that's all.
