What is the difference between 32bit and 64 bit and which should I chose?

I installed Ubuntu Natty 64-bit on HP machine, with the following hardware:

  • AMD Phenom 8600 triple core processor
  • 3GB RAM
  • GeForce 6150SE nForce 430

But I feel that it's so slow compared with the same machine with Ubuntu Lucid 32-bit with PAE.

What do you recommend, install Natty 32-bit? Get back to Lucid or Maverick?

Some tip for speed up my machine? Should I install gnome?
