| 657310 | 2008-04-09 08:41:00 | Is the motherboard 64 bit?? If it isnt get the 32 bit version Depends on whether you want to spend more to get the 64 bit version, and what you want to use it for. |

| 657311 | 2008-04-09 08:44:00 | Get 2GB of RAM at least, it's cheap these days. 1GB will work, but it will be slow. ;) | pcuser42 (130) | ||
| 657312 | 2008-04-09 22:24:00 | Is the motherboard 64 bit?? The processor does support 64bit OSes, but with only 1GB of RAM it wouldn't be worth it. 64bit is only of value if you have some 64bit app that requires > 4GB of memory. Get another 1GB of RAM and use the 32bit version, it should be fine. |

| 657313 | 2008-04-10 04:15:00 | Cool thanks... I heard that the 64bit version was faster though? | Mateo1981 (12187) | ||
| 657314 | 2008-04-10 04:17:00 | Well depends if u use a 64 bit and mobo and programs that support 64 bit. Then it (the programs) not vista may do things faster |
