the intel atom processor supports 64bit, but 2GB ram may be a little low to run 64bit. Is it worth upgrading windows 10 32bit to 64bit? has anyone tried it?

    Leave it at 32 bit. The biggest gain with 64 bit doesn't really kick in until you have 4GB of RAM, and the 32 bit install uses fewer resources.
