Ngek. I researched a little more on the practicality of having 4gigs of RAM on a 32-bit OS. (Am currently using 32-bit Vista sa house). Maximum addressable memory space pala niya is only 4gigs, tapos shared pa with other add-on cards with memory (vid/sound cards, etc), kaya sometimes 3.2gigs na lang ang available.
Hindi rin daw better alternative ang pag-upgrade to 64-bit OS, since medyo buggy pa ang 64-bit Vista, and the lack of drivers to support both hardware and software.
So I guess I'm better off buying a video card na lang muna.
*Macmon: Thanks for the tip. I already downloaded that utility.

That's probably true if the year was 2007. I have Vista Ultimate x64 and never EVER had a problem with drivers, or bugs for that matter. And I'm into connecting a lot of stuff on my PC too (ie. digital camera, scanner, printer, Logitech wheel, iPod, Garmin eTrex (serial) and Nuvi (USB), smartphone and even a PCI cable-TV card. You'll be surprised how much driver support Vista x64 has now.
Heck, this is even more rock-solid than the WinXP SP3 I had before this.
Though, I admit that Vista is not the best OS in terms of efficiency. But since Windows 7 is promised to deliver what Vista didn't, I'm sticking to Vista x64 for now until Windows 7 becomes retail.Last edited by oj88; May 11th, 2009 at 04:26 PM.
