As you can see from my photo, an obstacle with using this, is that there is no properly working 64-Bit capable Chipset driver for the two most common ones on AMD based setups (AMD/ATI & nForce) - so you should check if the one of the mainboard your're going to use, can run SATA devices in AHCI mode... 
Though it doesn't work flawless with all apps, I would love to see an screenshot showing 64-Bit Kernel been booted hundret percent succesfully on AMD....
