Then you have a right to your money back under the Sale of Goods Act 1979, or
whatever equivalent legislation may apply in your country. Goods must be fit
for the purpose described.
It is clear enough to me that the cooling system is inadequate for the 64-bit
processor when running in 64-bit mode. If the computer was described
anywhere as having a 64-bit processor, then it has been misdescribed and you
are entitled to a refund of the full purchase price.

Good luck getting your refund!
