Upgrade from 12.10 to 14.04 directly from ubuntu or clean Install?

I am currently using Ubuntu 12.10 i386.


I was disappointed when I was unable to install any software, get updates, or upgrade.


In another question here, I was told to install Ubuntu 14.04. And I am currently downloading the Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 via Transmission.


I've used Windows for a long time and I know I can't upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit.


The Ubuntu installation that I use now is 32 bit 12.10, so can I upgrade directly to Ubuntu 14.04 from 12.10 or do I have to clean install it?


If i can upgrade without losing files, can someone please tell me how?
