I only want 3gb as i'll be running win 7 32bit. Looking for a cheap option, say £50.

Any particular reason for W7 32?

I don't see any point in spending the extra money for 64. 3gb is enough ram for me i feel.

Isn't that only with windows 7 ultimate which costs a lot more than the other versions?

I can get Windows 7 32bit through my friend who is a student for 30 quid. My brother recently bought windows 7 ultimate for 230 odd quid and it had both 32/64bit discs. Unfortunately you can only run it on one machine at a time and i'm not paying that much for Windows

Would i actually see better performance using 64bit with 4gig than 32bit with 3gig? If so, is this added performance enough to contemplate less support?

Ok well thanks for the help
