I have Vista HEP 32bit with a Q6600 and 2GB RAM. Does it make sense or will I benefit from 4GB RAM? The way I understand it even if the extra ram is used for devices I would get the fuller use of 2.x or 3.x ram...am I reading it correct?ThanksBill

Installing any more than 3GB RAM with a 32-bit Windows OS will result in the extra RAM not being seen or used by the OS ie. a wasted cost and effort. If you have 2 x 1G dual channel now, put in 2 x 512M dual channel to bring you up to the 3GB usable limit.Gary
