The 64-bit engine is great - and its nice that you have the option to take advantage of it while in a 32-bit environment.

You can't ask for more. It is almost flawless. I have been running it for 12 hours now. No crashes whatsoever.

no big deal at this point.....sonar 5 is very nice, though.

To use the 64-bit engine (even in a 32-bit environment) - go under Options - Audio - under the General tab click the box that says "64-Bit Double Precision Engine"
Sonar automatically adjust all 32-bit plugins to work in the 64-bit mode.

Will it make any difference, really?

Yes - even if it is only in your mind

Here's what Cakewalk says:
What is the 64-bit double precision checkbox in Options – Audio – General Tab?
The information in this article applies to:
SONAR 5 Studio Edition
SONAR 5 Producer Edition
Enabling this checkbox chooses 64-bit double-precision mixing in SONAR 5 throughout the entire signal path, including dithering and plug-ins.
64-bit double precision mixing provides greater resolution, meaning more accurate audio reproduction and more headroom. You’ll especially notice the benefits of the 64-bit double precision capability when working in large projects containing many audio tracks and plug-ins. You’re chances of clipping will be significantly reduced.
The 64-bit signal path includes plug-ins and busses too. SONAR 5 sends and receives 64-bit data to and from all plug-ins that accept 64-bit data. If a plug-in requires 32-bit data, SONAR 5 automatically handles the conversion
