Gaussian 03 on AMD Athlon 64



 Hi CCLers,
 
I am planning to build a workstation with an AMD Athlon 64 Processor (3400+ to be specific). My university has a site-license for Gaussian 03, but we do not have the source code (at least I do not believe we do).
 
I have binaries available for Intel and AMD 32-bit architecture under Linux. Supposedly, the Athlon 64 processors can run 32 bit and 64 bit applications. I was wondering if anyone has had experience running 32-bit Gaussian binaries on one of these 64-bit(32-bit compatible) systems.
 
I am not so much worried about optimizing performance of Gaussian, as I am in the operability of GaussView and Gaussian itself. I am planning to run the calculations on a separate cluster, unless they are small or test calculations that could be handled by a single CPU efficiently.
 
Please include what OS you are using in the reply. I would likely choose Fedora Core 1 for AMD64 as my platform, although I am open to suggestions for alternatives.
 Thank you all!
