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? ;)

Currently running 1.5GB of DDR400 RAM. When I get my new system at the end of the summer I will have 2GB of DD2 800 RAM :D
