Thread: Which one should I use?

In my new pc I have assembled I am confused on which windows 7 ultimate should I install-32 bit or 64 bit. I have 4 GB of DDR3 RAM installed.
I was hoping to get some feedback from you guys on what I should do. Basically as most people know when you have a 32 bit OS & 4GB's of RAM it normally will only be able to use a little over 3GB's of that RAM. What I was wondering was do you think it's worth going with 64 bit? As I understand my computer will then be able to use the full 4GB if needed & more should I need to. I mean would I notice a substantial performance increase?
I have found all my hardware compatible with 64 bit. But the problem is with software. Wherever I go I see only 32 bit softwares available.

Advisable to stick to 32 Bit now.

i was using 64bit windows 7 RTM and i had 0 issues with it, i would say go ahead and use it.

Most or all of the 32 bit softwares work on 64 bit Windows. I think you can choose 64 bit and use 32 bit softwares in it. You can later use 64 bit softwares also.

Use 64 bit as you have good memory.

64 bit FTW
it wins from 32 bit

installing 64 Bit of Windows 7 will work faster when compared to 32 Bit. Do windows update regularly that will help you in performance. Also use Microsoft Security Essential Software from microsoft which is free antivirus A Grade software from microsoft that will help you from threads.

64bit windows 7 RTM is a better choice

32-bit is sufficient

64 bit is nice than 32 bit..

64 bit windows 7 is good choice.

64 bit is better than 32 bit.
