@djdelarosa25 32-bit, it SHOULD have less memory usage.

 

With 3GB of RAM it is recommended to install a 32-bit OS

However, if you ever get more memory (above 4GB) you would need to install a 64-bit version of Windows.

4 GB is the max limit of the board. Should I go 64-bit ever if I max out the mem to 4 GB?

I would do 32-bit, it uses less memory.

 

64-bit is only good over 4GB. I mean, you can use 64-bit under 4GB, it just uses more memory so you have less for your applications
