RAM question

[Juxax]

with windows vista 32, with x4 1024mb sticks of ddr2 1066 run worse, counter productive then 2g? if not, how much will it register, about 3.2 orso?

I know someone who has 4g ram on win xp and it didn't even show the extra 2g, and in some instances made their pc run worse.

i don't particularly wanna go 64 bit, so I'm just curious if buying more ram would help running crysis MP? or just make my pc worse.

i think its a bit hit and miss whether it would run any worse. The amount that will show is dependant on your system. 32-bit OS can only use 4gb which is spread across all memory (ex HDD) in your system (i.e. RAM, PCI bus etc)
