And you are wrong wrong wrong wrong. Period. Go learn about computers, please.
64 bit processors can deal with maths more effeciently, as well as dealing with larger numbers on chip.
A very simple example for you..

By using 32 bits your processor can represent numbers from 0 to 4,294,967,295 while a 64-bit machine can represent numbers from 0 to 18,446,744,073,709,551,615. Obviously this means your computer can do math with larger numbers, and be more efficient with smaller numbers.

They can also access more data, and deal with larger app and data structures than a 32 bit chip.
They also generally use newer technology on the silicon, which makes them faster generically.
