I'm using 32-bit operating system since I've my laptop. I've never used the 64-bit operating system so I'm much curious about this that if I upgrade to 64-bit still my pc will give me the same performance. However I've checked about my hardware from this question. I don't know about those result that what they are saying? So I'm here for little help to know that is there any performance issue after upgrading or not?
Answer
In common usage, the reason to go 64-bit is to make use of more RAM (memory) in your system.
In Windows, 32-bit is limited to a little over 2GB of RAM available to programs, while 64-bit is virtually limitless. To benefit from it, your processor must support 64-bit. The D.E.P. and virtualization are not related to performance in common desktop usage.
So, since Windows 32-bit already supports a little over 3GB of RAM:
- If you have 3GB of RAM or less, stay with 32-bit.
- If you have 4GB or more, go with 64-bit.
