Intel® 64 architecture delivers 64-bit computing on server, workstation, desktop and mobile platforms when combined with supporting software.¹ Intel 64 architecture improves performance by allowing systems to address more than 4 GB of both virtual and physical memory.
You may find that it runs better in 64-bit mode with more RAM.
But if you insist on upgrading try this: Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor T7800 (4M Cache, 2.60 GHz, 800 MHz FSB)
