Any reason not to use 64bit for a server?

I've currently got a 32 bit version of Ubuntu Server installed onto my HP N40L Microserver. Before I get too much more installed on it, is there any reason not to wipe it clean and install the 64 bit version instead?

Will the 64 bit version run any faster or does it not really matter? I also seem to be able to see 8gb RAM even under the 32 bit version.

(The 32 bit install was just a trial install)
