Pointless and waste of money having 4gigs. 32bit OS can oly use 3GB Max and can only give 2GB to each aplication. All games will run within 2GB and not make any use of more than 1.7GB.

1. Might i inquire as to how one might access this 3GB Max with only 2GB of ram then?

2. Try supreme commander 8 player game. Try hellgate multiplayer at max settings (at 1920x1200 or higher).

3. Why limit it to games? Photobloat CS3 takes up a zillion megs of RAM just to load up.... try working to 54MP images..... Or how about a 1GB+ Virtual machine? Or a transaction heavy SQL server heh.

4. Who said anything about 32bit OS?
