Dear, 64bit is no problem at all, but if you expect high load, better add lots of RAM (8GB+) and multiple hard drives, so you can use RAID 5/6 and separate disk sets for system, logging and mysql.
Have also a look at Nginx, my experience is that it’s faster than Apache. Also your chipset is for desktop machines, better have a look at a real server.
