Currently running 3gb ddr3 ram with windows 7 32bit, i have another 1gb stick on the way, what would be better to use? 32 bit or 64bit windows 7, and why? Thanks

Adding another 1gb, on average, you will only see about 250mb of it with a 32 bit system.

Go for 64bit or just stick with 3gb ram.

64Bit because I said so. :mad:

32Bit won't see all your ram & 64Bit is well supported these days.

These days? It has been well supported for quite some time!

64-bit all the way. That 1GB extra RAM is a waste of time on 32-bit.
