Admittedly, these are pretty powerful machines. And Antoine was
right, it's amd64 (I don't have i386 in real day-to-day use anymore).
I have a couple of P4s (no HT) running i386 (firewall, and my web/db
server), but otherwise everything is amd64.
But here are the dmesgs for my office workstation and my laptop:

Geez, that looks familiar... :) My workhorse (not workstation since X
doesn't work):

So if your 3770 can handle it fine, mine probably can too. :) I should
also mention that I have three boot SSDs (various OSes, runs OpenBSD 90%
of the time) plus the two big RAID volumes for data, so going FDE isn't
entirely useful.
My workstation isn't too shabby either:

but again, the big volumes are just for storage and the OS/boot is also
from an SSD.
I have a 3.2GHz P4 (with HT, so it's amd64) as a general server and it
has a crypto volume. I don't think FDE would fly quite so well on
it... I'd love for the web/database server to be FDE, but a 2.8GHz i386
P4 would probably cry in pain.
The bottom line is that for the machines that are capable of FDE, I run
an SSD/HDD split for the OS/data. Not a lot of point in encrypting the
OS for the sake of it, at least in my case.
