I run the lscpu command on Ubuntu and this is the result:

I have bought my computer about 5 years ago. All these years I thought it can just support 32-bits. Now I found out CPU op-mode(s): 32-bit, 64-bit means that my CPU also supports 64-bits.
I want to know if I can totally install a 64-bit OS on my computer? Is there any other thing to know? Does my computer totally meet all requirements to have 64-bit OS installed?
