Windows Vista ultimate question
« on: May 21, 2008, 12:41:40 PM »
So im gonna try out Vista Ultimate

And i dont want your whining about how much Vista sucks blablabla, i just have one question.

Which one do i get, ive seen 32\64\86 bit versions?

Heard it depends on the ram system and im wondering which one is the best one to pick, i currently have 2 gigs of ram.

Technically 64-bit offers better performance, but it may have some compatibility and stability issues.

I'd get the 64, if only to try it.

And drivers, maybe the most common problem. I'd suggest Vista Ultimate x32, but that's just me.

It depends on the processor, there's a x64 version for Windows XP too, it runs better on AMD 64's, since they run with 64 bit instead of 32. So, if your processor runs with 64 bits, get the x64 version.

@KM: Compatibility mode? Never heard of it, or?
