When you install new software, Windows 7 puts it automatically on Program Files folder if the software you are installing is 64-bit version.
All 32-bit programs are installed to Program Files (x86) folder.

Performance can be enhanced sometimes but 64-bit was really designed to allow for more addressing space. That is, more memory (RAM) can be installed and utilized by the system.
In many cases where not a lot of RAM is needed, 32-bit Windows can still outperform 64-bit.
