A 32 bit os can only address 3,12 GB of memory, so if you have more memory installed, it will be necessary, to use a 64 bit os.

Find a company where you can pick your own parts, but let them assemble it.

All the goodness of building your own PC without the downsides like needing technical skill and lacking full shop warranty.
