Why 4gb of Ram

[Richiev4]

Hi All

As I understand it, 32bit OS's cannot see more than 3gb of ram, So why do Dell put/offer 4gb Ram in there laptops?

It is possible that you may want to upgrade to a 64bit OS but the vast majority of people probably won't.

Just wanted to know if there is any benefit?

Thanks

Thanks Oxy, are you running a 64bit OS?

Edit: How well does 32bit software tun in a 64bit OS?

Thanks
