I understand that the best game machine is the 64 bit AMD Athlon. Does
anyone know anything about that?

What that means is that the AMD Athlon 64 is the fastest desktop CPU for
gaming.

The FX-55 CPU has a good lead over the fastest intel processors in gaming.
Any Athlon-64 will be faster than a comparatively priced Intel processor for
almost any game.

(This is of course assuming you have a comparable system in terms of video
card, hard drive, amount of ram etc)

It has to be the an on-die memory controller which is very low in
latency compared to Intel, even the low-end Sempron gives Intel's much
more expensive P4 chips a run for their money when it comes to gaming.

anandtech.com has lots of comparisons.
