Nope, 32 bit apps can't address 4GB RAM - It's nothing to do with Ubuntu

 

The 32-bit version only seems to support about 3.5GB out of the box (I'm
sure it's tweak
able to run with more).

I'd say if you have less than 4GB memory, stick with 32-bit, especially
if you want to use things like the Adobe Flash Plugin.

 

 

 

I agree with James 32 bit os's only see 3.3 to 3.5 gig of ram (i have seen
it fluctuate) which is a limitation of a 32bit os to see the full 4 gig
