If it is an older printer you will need to look at the mainboard and the main chip on the board. If it is an STM32F1 then it's 32 bit.
I don't think Creality has put an 8 bit board into a printer since last fall. There should be something on the Creality site to point you in the right direction. The CR10 forum on Reddit would be a good place to start looking as well.
I just found this...I don't know if it's true but it's the way my boards are:
"Look at the USB connector. If it is a mini USB socket then it is 8 bit. If it is a micro USB socket it is 32 bit."
So the bigger socket means it's 8 bit.
This site mostly covers Ultimaker hardware and Cura. My printer is an Ender 3 Pro but I'm much in the minority here.

In the Cura 5.8 stable release, everyone can now tune their Z seams to look better than ever. Method series users get access to new material profiles, and the base Method model now has a printer profile, meaning the whole Method series is now supported in Cura!
We are happy to announce the next evolution in the UltiMaker 3D printer lineup: the UltiMaker Factor 4 industrial-grade 3D printer, designed to take manufacturing to new levels of efficiency and reliability. Factor 4 is an end-to-end 3D printing solution for light industrial applications
