My current setup:
Windows Vista, 32 bit
- 2 sticks of 1 GB Kingston HyperX 1333Mhz ram
- Asus P5K3 Deluxe Motherboard
My Theoretical, temporary setup
- Windows Vista, 32 bit
- 4 sticks of 2 GB, 1333 MHz ram
Final setup in 2 months time
- Windows 7 Home Premium, 64 bit
- 4 sticks of 2 GB, 1333 MHz ram
Questions:
Is there any problems with having 8 GB ram in a 32 bit Windows Vista?
As i understand it, i would simply only be able to utiluse ~3,2 GB of them. The rest would just be unsused.
Is this correct?
Does anyone have any notes i should be aware of, before buying this?

Yes, the extra memory will be physically present, but not usable by a 32-bit OS. It will not cause problems.
