Question: Difference between Windows xp 32 bit and 4 bit

Now a days we have 32 bit and 64 bit opeating system availble with Windows xp . 64 bit is called x-64. The only difference i found is that 64 bit OS uses memory better than 32 bit. The page file size is almost 4 GB. That mean i can run applications that require huge memory without upgrading RAM.

    Well, I think you should refer to the below figure (the attachment file) for further informations… As you can see, the 64-bit processor channel (bus) is twice larger than the 32-bit processor. which means, the 64-bit can carry out double amount of the traffic compare with the 32-bit…

    Hi,

    Also note the memory restrictions on the 32-bit version of Windows.

    If you fit let’s say 4GB of RAM in your PC, and you have a 1 GB graphics card, 32-bit Windows will not be able to use all of your available memory.

    In that case, it is better to use 64-bit Windows.

    Ciao
