Is it worth upgrading to 4gb of ram from 3.5
I use Windows Vista Ultimate 32 bit edition and i have 3.5gb of ram and I'm not exactly how much vista 32 bit can use but I know that it isn't more than 4gb. So is upgrading worth spending money on?

No! The 32bit O/S can only make use of about 3.3GB or so and will not benefit from more.

nope. unless you have the intention of upgrading the OS to 64 bit in the future, you would be wasting money on an upgrade your computer cant utillize.

Alright thanks I will eventually upgrade to Vista 64 bit or Windows 7 64 bit because my motherboard supports 8gb of ram.
