Default Switching to MAC Pro

Hi

I am running PTHD-8 on windows XP, and thinking about purchasing a used Mac Pro Quad 2.8ghz,
4gb ram, OSX 10.6, it is a 2008 Model Mac Pro 3.1 MA970LL/A. It is a 64bit machine I was told, and want to know If I can run PTHD-8 with 64bit. I will have (1)pcie card install (HD-1), with the possiblity of HD-2 in future.
Any help will be greatly appreciated, I don't know much about MAC's

Thanks, Tony

You can run the computer in 64bit mode but PT is only a 32bit app.
