Well, no one is holding a gun to my head if that is what you mean.
However, to take advantage of all the memory I have in this system, as
well as the improved overall system performance, yes I do have to use
the 64bit version.

IMHO, 32bit systems are all ready becoming passe. I predict
that they will go the way of the dinosaur in 5 years or less.

I did have i386 installed on this system briefly because there were no
64bit nVidia drivers available. After switching to 64bit I have noticed
a real improvement in overall system performance.
