I am upgrading to a new system and wondering if there is a preference for 32 or 64 and vista or xp for 5 boxing on one pc.

I know there is a cap of 4 gig with the 32 bit but i heard that although the 64 bit can make use of much more memory it take a bit more as well. I have also heard that vista takes a bit more horse power in general too.

I will have 4 gb of memory and 512 up to 1 gb memory on my video card. So without the 64 bit i would lose 512 to 1 gb memory off the card. Is that last bit critical to run 5 on one pc? Does vista suck so much more juice that i need more memory?

:huh:
