What is the discharge of Windows XPI how to understand it?

This concept is denoted by the ability of the device to handle a certain amount of bits in a period of time. At the moment, there are two different versions for Windows for Windows: 32 and 64-bit, also denoted as x32 or x64. If you see the mark of x86 (for example, near the installer), it is equivalent to the characters "x32". But what it should mean for the user. Let's figure it out:

  • x32 Windows cannot serve more than 4 GB of RAM (actually uses a little more than three). Therefore, even if you have more installed, the computer will not be able to operate them. For correct operation, it will take x64 version
  • x64 OS without problems working with all programs intended for x32, and also recognizes all memory that is in stock,
  • if in the program nowhere states that it is intended for x64, then this version is for x32,
  • keep in mind that the drivers are also related to the discharge and must be selected correctly (otherwise the device may not work in full force or incorrectly). Nuance is that for some equipment simply no 64-bit versions,
  • assembly with multi-core processors work on x64 much faster. In addition, if the Multichannel motherboard, X64 better use this advantage.
