Another dumb question: and what hardware is that? What kind or processors? Must HD and memory also be changed if going 32 or 64 bit?

I mean if I would go to a store today and start putting together components for a system, how do I know whether the things I pick up is 64 or 32 bit? I read adverts and sales offers, but the bit version never is mentioned.
