Is there any advantage if I use 64-bit OS instead 32-bit OS?
Will I be facing problems switching from 32 to 64 bit due to softwares compatibility?

Thnx for your time :)
 
Solution
Yes, 64bit supports more RAM and is the best for gamers/ developers and pretty much every power user. For an extremely general usage PC with 4GB or less memory, 32 bit will suffice.

Some programs may not have 64bit support, but almost all recognized softwares have a 64bit version.

I have 4gb ram and i3 @ 3.3 GHz.
Will I be able to make the most of 64-bit?
What do you say 32 or 64?
 
I'd go with 64 bit any day. But what're your specific needs in terms of software?
64 bit if you're into gaming/ VFX/ designing or anything that'll require more memory, if not now, then in the future.
32 bit if you're a really general user with no specific needs.
I'd recommend 64 bit.
