If you have 64bit, why wouldn't you have 4GB+? Vista is quite the memory hog and most games are starting to utilize a good deal more memory... I personally went 8GB when 2x2GB kits were $45-50ish and never regretted it - Then again, I always end up leaving two or three games open as well as photoshop, winamp, several tabs on firefox, etc. in the background
Unless you're running XP, 4GB is pretty much the standard these days

But how much does it do load? I had 32-bit Vista Ultimate and it took all of my RAM!!! Currently I never go above 3GB load

I hooped on the band wagon myself. Running PS CS3, PS LR2 and playing games and using maybe 5GB with plenty to spare is just peachy.

2GB is already not enough IMO. Man I was away from 2GB in 2006 when I upped to 3GB on my XP Home. anyone running 2GB now and playing games with that is WAY behind!
