Code:

uname -a
in the terminal will tell you

Code:

[andrew@andrew-msi ~]$ uname -a
Linux andrew-msi 2.6.38-rc5+ #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Feb 16 16:33:34 CST 2011 x86_64 AMD Phenom(tm) 9500 Quad-Core Processor AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux

Doesn't even matter does it?

Unless you have 8 gig ram I'd stick with 32 bit version.
