what do you mean, windows vista ultimate 64 bit can address 128gb of ram

Erm, no. 64-bit OSes addresses up to 16TB of RAM. It's just impossible to reach that high with the hardware architecture limitations.
Out of these three, I'd grab the second one, pair that with DDRIII-2133. Enough said about speed.

ms are so stupid, they let vista use 128tb when 2003 datacenter edition which is like 10k+ supports less?

Windows Server 2003 Datacenter Edition also supports Non-Uniform Memory Access. If supported by the system, Windows, with help from the system firmware creates a Static Resource Affinity Table that defines the NUMA topology of the system. Windows then uses this table to optimize memory accesses, and provide NUMA awareness to applications, thereby increasing the efficiency of thread scheduling and memory management.

Not Windows Vista/XP 64 bit OS's, they can only address 128GB of RAM per Microsoft.

So you're saying that MS bottlenecks the RAM addressing? Well, in a way, Vista will be dead before we even reach 4TB of RAM...

 

[James^.^]

When will we need terabytes of ram?

 

[jdbennet]

when crysis 2 comes out lol

What I was saying was that Microsoft states that those 64 bit OS's can support 128GB of RAM, while other 64 bit OS's may support more.
