    There are models for each that support 64bit.
    Pretty sure you are okay with the pentium d I think almost all of them are x64.
    The Celeron d is a bit trickier though, as there are two sets of chips labeled as celeron d and one does not support 64 bit instructions.

    Here's a little 114Kb utility that will tell you that on your PC. GRC*|*SecurAble: Determine Processor Security Features*|** Of course it works only on a running computer.

    Visit the motherboard manufacturer's website.
