You don't get the problem, at least if you run a decent operating system, 'cause I know some people having problem using more than 4 Gig of ram, even with AMD64 or EM64T hardware, and (hum) Vista. Just to say the arch does not make everything, a good software is also needed.
plus, X86_64 gets rid of a part of the limitation of the old x86 model, but not everyting... like old & bad bios (still waiting for EFI), 640K thing, 8GB, 128/137GB HDD hacks...
