I would recommend 64-bit, 32-bit will not see all of your 8 GB of memory. Although I don't know about an iMac, maybe someone will advise the opposite.

I ordered 64 bit Windows 7 for that very reason. Will Dangerous Waters play on the 64 bit Windows? I also have Silent Hunter 4 and hope both will run since they were designed for Windows XP. Thanks for your reply.

I think they both should work fine.
