There's a socket a 2800+, a s754 32 bit 2800+ and a 64 bit 2800+, nice
and simple ;)
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/07/07/amd_64bit_sempron/ lists which
model semprons have 64 bit versions, basically the 2600+, 2800+,
3000+, 3100+ and 3300+. So expect lots more people asking stuff like
this ones they start getting them with or without realising!

BTW, the 64 bit versions have an AMD64 sticker on the retail box while
the 32 bit versions don't, or that was the case of my 2600+ 32 bit ver
and 2800+ 64 bit cpu.
