I think that will be my excuse for a new Ion based netbook early next year. _________________________ Xbox 360 & a PC currently undergoing mitosis •AMD Athlon 64 X2 DC 6000, 3GHz •3GB PC2 5300 DDR2 •Sapphire Radeon HD 6950 2 GB •Creative SB X-Fi Fatal1ty Pro / Logitech Z-5500 •Logitech G27, Nixim mod

The DVD drive had been playing up too so that's my excuse, I mean reason for a new one lol. What is the difference between the 32 and 64 bit versions? _________________________ Antec 902 MSI GTX 570 OC Twin FrozR 3 Power Edition 1280MB GDDR5 Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB Corsair XMS3 6GB DDR3 PC3-12800C9 (1600MHz) Tri-Channel Gigabyte EX58-UD3R Intel X58 (Socket 1366) DDR3 LG GH22NS30 22x DVD±RW SATA Dual Layer ReWriter Corsair TX 650W ATX2.2 PSU Intel Core i7 920 2.66Ghz D0 OC'd to 3.40GHz Coolermaster V8 CPU Cooler 7.1 HD OnBoard Sound Card W7 HP 64 bit 27" iiyama monitor TM HOTAS Warthog #05225 TM Cougar MFDs Saitek Pro-flight combat pedals Track IR 5

NoUseForAName Hotshot Registered: 11/02/04 Posts: 5109 Loc: Colorado	32bit can only use ~3GB of RAM; 64bit can use much, much more. Also note that the software you run needs to be 64bit also to utilize the most RAM; but 32bit apps will still work (just can't use as much RAM). As of right now there's really no reason not to go 64bit since (hopefully) more and more companies will start writing software for 64bit _________________________ "No bucks, no Buck Rogers" Case: CoolerMaster HAF-922 MoBo: ASUS M4A89GTD Pro/USB3 PSU: XFX Black Edition 750w CPU: AMD Phenom II x4 965 3.4GHz OC'd -> 3.9GHz RAM: 12GB Mushkin Blackline DDR3 1333/1600 GPU: Palit GTX 560 Ti 2GB Display: Asus 25.5" @ 1920x1200 OS: Win7 Pro 64bit Audio: On-board AC'97 w/ Sony 5.1 surround

adlabs6 Contributing Editor ArmA2 Player! Veteran Registered: 11/11/04 Posts: 13195 Loc: Texas, USA	I went 32 bit, since one of my FS9 addons is a 16 bit external app, which won't run under 64 bit OS. And I can choose 64 bit later if it's needed. No real loss, since I have no plans on upgrading my 2GB of memory anytime soon. _________________________ WARNING: This post may not bear appropriate warning labels, a noncriminal illegal omission.
