    Upgrade mo muna RAM to atleast 4gb para ma-take advantage mo yung 64bit os. x64 programs will greatly benefit
    from it, i.e. Photoshop 64bit

    64-bit systems/operating systems can make use of more memory:

    2^32 = ~4GB RAM maximum(although some older mobos can't handle 4GB due to hw/BIOS limit)
    2^64 = ~16 exabytes

    64-bit systems should also be able to process data in bigger chunks given that it's using 64-bit registers.

    imho there might be some sluggishness running 32-bit apps on a 64-bit OS, but i don't think you'll notice it.

    nope.... its the same as having a 4 GB RAM, pero naka 32 bit.... 3.2 GB lang madedetect.

    hindi lang naman sa RAM support makikita ang difference. in windows, 64-bit:

    * come with a technology to prevent hijacking the kernel,
    * support for hardware-enabled data execution protection,
    * mandatory digitally signed 64-bit device drivers,
    * and increased performance for programs that are written to take advantage of a 64-bit operating system.

    kung magretain ka lang ng 2GB of RAM, ok na yung 32 bit. pero pag mag 4GB pataas ka, 64 bit dapat
