"32-bit" graphics cards are by and large just 24 bits stuffed into 32 bits. Why? Because it's faster to move 32-bit aligned data than 24-bit aligned data.

If they use the high 8 bits for anything, it's for transparency information, and that's not used on the primary surface anyway, only for textures and blitted surfaces.

I wrote an article on 16-bit and 32-bit graphics for Windows Developers Journal; it's here.
