Trying to find the last part for my pc (os)

I just built a new quad core with 4g of ram and I heard only the 64 bit version of windows xp can fully utilize it. I was just simply looking for a link to a 64 bit version of xp with sp2 (preferably home, but either way), but I can't figure out which version of windows at amazon/tiger direct/ zipzoomfly I need

a link to which version of XP im looking for would be greatly appriciated

I don't know, I've heard bad things about the 64-bit version of XP. If you do get a 64-bit OS I recommend Vista, but if you get a 32-bit version (which only supports 3.2GB of RAM) then get XP Professional.General_X

What do you mean you heard bad things about it?

I agree with everything General says. I have used XP 64, and really hated the experience. Drivers sucked, applications didn't perform well, gaming was bad. I have Vista 64, and love it.

Thoses were my experiences as well. Now I tried XP 64 quite a while ago, so it could be just fine now. But so far Vista 64 has been good to me.

yes same here

iv heard nothing but bad things about xp 64bit

the only 64bit os you should buy is vista

unless you only want 3.5 gigs get windows xp sp2 32bit

With a 512MB graphics card, him having 3.5GB of RAM free is a rather high estimate.
