Processing power Ram Recognition Board Architecture North Bridge 64 Bit > 32 Bit The only thing I can say negative up till now about 64 Bit is that early adopters kinda got screwed with support for those systems. That is not true so much anymore. Secondly, I personally am a big proponent of "clean" and "constant" power coming in off the rails of the power supply. This is more important in a 64 Bit machine over a 32 Bit machine. A marginal power supply is not a deal breaker, but like I said me personally, am willing to spend up to get the more robust configuration. Don't make me have'ta Troll ya Bro!

Squared Unregistered S	I have a quad core with 8gb ram using Vista. I run two clients of Darkfall, Vent, Windows Media Player and usually Firefox on it at 32% CPU usage and 40% ram usage. I could only be doing this on a 64bit. GET 64 BIT!!!!!

The girl in the pink looks like a girl I dated in the 80's. Last edited by Helemoto; 12/04/09 08:01 PM.
