Problems with 64Bit.....?

Hello Again Vista64... OK, so I've been building a new system over the last few weeks.. I'm almost done, and probably in the next day or 2 I'm going to be throwing Vista 64 on my new Build.. so before I get into that OS install mess I figured I'd ask the Pro's (Vistax64) what they thought and what all I should be looking for, worried about.. etc...

I've got myself a Q6700 with GO
eVGA 750i FTW Mobo
4GB RAM.. Coming, only have 2 for now.. (I heard while doing 64 install only have 1 stick of ram in.. after it's done add the other.. why?? will that make things easier)
Seagate Cuda 7200.11 500GB 32mb Cache
Corsair PSU
Cooler Master 690 case, modded..
The rest you don't really need to kno.

Basically I'm getting ready to install 64 bit on my new build. and I was hoping for some Direction.. some input on what problems I can expect to have.. I've read that a lot of people are doing fine with games and drivers.. so I don't think I'll have a problem there.. I play some CS, some Crysis and a lil COD4.. I wont have any problems with all those right.

So if anyone has any suggestions as to what I should do, things that I should LOOK for during install.. any tips to help with smooth install and smooth using.. please share..

What are the basic and often seen problems that I may have.. Should I have my CPU and Mobo drivers ready for after OS install.. or can i just update them online after install is finished..

Please share ur info with me I'd appreciate it..

Thanks in Advanced everyone.
