Eppy 3,446 Report post Posted September 5, 2006 unless you are running a Vista beta OS you will not see much difference from the 32 bit processors since all windows OSes are currently coded in 32 bit Quote "That fairy needs to stop shouting in my ear, or I'm going to throw her friend I have trapped in the bottle into a lava pit or something. HEY, LISTEN! No, YOU listen. If something's important, just say so without yelling at me. Or fly over to it and change color like you usually do. Just because I'm busy mowing the lawn and hoping I'll find some spare change, doesn't mean I can't hear you." - Link Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ram dosnt have a set speed that it has to stay at depending on what kind. Normaly if you buy 997megaherts it can run that or anything below it. Thats why when adding more ram it become a pain in the ass if your new to the process. Quote All hail piggy, king of bacon ^)^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BlitzZ 1,078 Report post Posted September 7, 2006 Lol.. All windows incarnations suck Mimiru. Linux is FAR superior, although since I don't want to try all these emulators and stuff I dual booted or whatever, my harddrive, so I can use windows for gaming, but mostly I use linux for everyday stuffs. and yeah...eppy nailed it right on the head. (I've always wanted to say that) lol. Quote [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
