64 or 32 bits
Throughout the years we have ran into several cases of "wasted
computers". It so happens that people love investing several thousands of
dollars in cutting-edge computers with top of the line processors... but sooner
or later their computers will require maintenance due to some error in the
system, hard disk, etc. They will end up taking their computers to shops or
technicians that lack experience and knowledge...
We say "wasted computers" because we always find a 32 bits OS
with a 64 bits processor... meaning that they are wasting half the power of
data displacement in the processor... in R&D terms, we call it ¨The Ferrari
with an electric scooter engine Syndrome¨.
That is one of the reasons that slowdown applications and the file management
process... or at least the computer won´t be as efficient as we technology
enthusiasts would want them to be.
Current computers have a minimum of 4GB RAM memory. A 32 bits OS will be
wasted approximately a 30% of memory... If we think of a computer with 8, 16 or
more GBs in RAM, the OS will only "see" 2.99 GB for every case.
When the processor and the OS are on the same level (64 bits) and
working together, the experience will change. We can have 4, 8, 16, 32, 64,
128* GB in RAM memory and it will work at a 100% as long as the OS is Windows
Vista or higher. (*Depends on Dimm slots and OS. For instance Windows 7
ultimate x64 can support 192GB of RAM and if you had 20 dimm slots on your MB
you could test the limits of that OS. Considering most laptops use 2-4 dimms
figure 4x8=32gb to be the normal limits).
So... how can you take advantage of those 64 bits? Well, they will make
your computer agile, more stable, with better response time...
