| I am building a computer and I have heard many different things about the memory! The motherboard I am buying will hadle 8GB max, but I am using Vista Ulttimate 32bit. I have been told that 32bit OS will only read 4GB of mem and that a 64bit OS is needed for higher amounts of mem. If anyone knows please let me know. Getting ready to buy everything and needing to know if 8GB of mem will work on a 32bit OS. THANX ![]() |

| 32bit won't recognize more than about 3 GB RAM, but it claims 4
