Vista 32bit or 64bit?

[Sean Grenyer]

Hi

I'm wanting to upgrade my XP O/S to Vista so I can use DX10, but am not sure whether to go for 32bit or 64bit. The computer is only used for FSX.

What are people's thoughts on that?

Thanks.

64 bits! I've had no compatibility or drivers problems with it, it let's you use more than 4GB and runs applications faster (even 32bit applications run faster but, of course, not much).

If you've been using 32-bit, then your system hasn't been using 4Gb of RAM.

So yeah, 64-bit is the way to go.  Besides, if you used 32-bit, then you just waster money on 4GB of RAM.
