What is the difference, apart from 1 is 64 bit and one 32 bit, and what is 90nm?

Why is it that the XP3200+ is 2.2ghz, and 64Bit 3200+ is 2 ghz?

I assume that the 64 bit one is faster?

90nm is as syphertek nanometres, which is how big the silicon area making up one transistor is on the chip, so each transistor is 0.000009cm across, which 0.0000035 inches. Small.
The Xp 3200+ may have a higher clockspeed than the A64, but the A64 will perform better in all applications and will roar ahead with applications supporting 64-bit.
