Just thought about something with the update
Bisjac:
many games with advanced shaders were also 32bit.
i dont see a problem

At least, that's a theory

an average spec, best buy desktop for $500 can play the hell out of blockland.
this game dosnt really require much. you cant expect the gimping of development for games just because you are below the consumer average.
you arent supposed to use the same comp for 8 years.

My old 3 year old $250 laptop supported geometry shaders (I assue you mean vertex shaders) and could run most games using them (spore for example) at a decent average framerate(30 -15 fps).

Vertex shaders and geometry shaders are NOT the same thing. Geometry shaders were just introduced and only show up in high-mid to top-end cards. But pixel and vertex shaders should be fine on virtually anything off the shelf at this point.
