Posted: Fri Jan 23, 2009 8:17 pm Post subject: Which OS To Choose? |
|
|
my retard of a cousin bought a computer and wants to know what OS he should use. i suggested Vista Ultimate x64, can i get your advice/opinions, w.e, 'cause i don't usually play around with hardware and am not sure if he should get a 64bit or 32.
specs (copied and pasted from him):
Code: | Dual Core - 2.6GHz
CPU: intel 5200
MB: ASUS P5KPL-CM
9500GT 1GB
4GB RAM
550W PSU (skip) |
for light gaming and whatever the fuck else he does until he breaks it. xD
thanks. =D

Windows Vista 64bit.
According to the web
Windows 7 will be the last OS to run native 32bit apps.
The one after Windows 7 will be 64bit only with a 32bit emulation layer.
