Physically, the total amount of ram that a 32bit OS can address is 4GB. When you factor in the memory on the video card(s for SLi/Crossfire), the L1 and L2 cache on the CPU, and the possible memory on the audio cards, the total can drop by at least a gig. For instance,i am running 32 bit Vista Ultimate on a QX6700, 4x 1GB sticks of Crucial, and 2 8800GTX with 768MB of Vram on each, the upshot is that even though the BIOS can see all 4Gigs of system RAM, the OS can only address and therefore see 2.3 gigs.

Lol why on earth would you get a 32-bit Ultimate, makes little sense to me D:

I think Asus messed up on the memory speed. Shouldn't it be "3.6GHz (1800MHz DDR5)"? Otherwise it would be QDR.

Its is QDR apparently.

Oh, I'm SO PROUD of ASUS. They're the "World's first..." again. Ballyhoo!

HA!
I was right to be suspicious.

I could tell Palit Guy was genuine but there was something wierd about this guy.
Maybe the fact he said 'coz' in his post and he's supposed to be some sort of rep.

imperialreign · Jun 23, 2008

Damn, a 1GB 4850 already?!

I had figured those (if they were going to be done at all) wouldn't have been until at least after the 4870s were out :twitch:

Widjaja · Jun 23, 2008

I'm assuming there will be a 1GB 4870 now.
If so my brother's off to sell his GTX.

Because he wants very slightly higher performance? Good call, there.

No.

Because he has a CF board and he doesn't like the amount of driver updates which come out for nVidia.

Don't fret. You can use your 32bit key on 64bit. Even on the OEM versions. That's what I am currently doing. You just need to acquire a 64bit disc.
