Hey guys,

If you have less than 2GB of RAM, get the 32-bit version.  I've noticed systems that have little RAM tend to struggle with 64-bit OS's.

I'm pretty sure that you can only get 32bit

32 Bit upgrades to 32 Bit.

64 Bit upgrades to 64 Bit.

 

Simple as that.

32 Bit upgrades to 32 Bit.

64 Bit upgrades to 64 Bit.

 

Simple as that.

True dat.

how much RAM do you have?

[Diogo C.]

I have 8gb 1600mhz

if you want 64bit you will have to buy a key for it, your pc will just upgrade to 32

Better question, why do you have 8 gigs of RAM in a 32 bit system? How much did x86 Windows 7 even utilize? I know 4 gigs was the limit on XP, and I know there where tricks that Linux x86 uses for example to access more than 4 gigs of RAM, but did windows 7 implement any of those tricks...? Or are you only able to access half of your RAM?

But if I can download it from a computer that uses 64, can I simply install it on mine?
