[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 366165, member: 13090"] If you're running a Core i7 on a 32-bit OS with only 4GB of system RAM, you're driving your Corvette in second gear with the hand-brake half engaged. The Core i7 is a pretty beastly processor that really needs a 64-bit OS before it can show you what it can do; and the extra memory will give it the breathing room it needs to do that. I think 12GB is the minimum, I'd rather see 16GB, but 12GB will get the job done. Once you go 64-bit... There's no going back! [COLOR=#ffffff]....[/COLOR] [COLOR=#ffffff]....[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
