pretty sure ill be good with 2gb of ram

Im hooking this all up to my 32inch tv its only 720p So i think my cpu/apu should be able to handle all movies/shows at that resolution. Deciding if i should go 4gb of ram and get 64bit os. And what other things should i need to hook this up to my tv and cable box? I would like to connect 5.1 speakers that i have from my old theater box that blew up and was wondering if theres a sound card i can attach to this to have stereo speakers on it? And would the speakers also work on the TV to play with 5 speakers stead of the tv speakers.
