RAM Quick question

Postby Thud » Mon Apr 26, 2010 5:22 pm

Crucial says that Windows Vista 32 only recognizes 4 GB of RAM. Does that mean that I wouldn't have any FSX performance increase if I got say 6?

No, 6 gigs won't help any programs unless you have 64 bit windows.

Hi,

This may help you to compare memory limits per operating systems and their two flavors.
