After doing a bit of research im still unsure wether to have vista 64bit or 32bit. to be ohnast i dont really know the difference (thats why i came here), here is the system i am going to be getting if this could help what is best for me.

AMD athlon 64 x2 5000x2
4GB DDR2 RAM (2x2GB)
320GB HDD
512mb nvidia geforce 8600gts
Windows vista home premium 32bit or 64 bit?


i have heard though that it helps to have vista 64bit if you are having 4gb ram because it can give maximum performance as it can take advantage off all 4gb were as 32bit only uses around 2gb.

thank you.
