I notice that nearly all my games gain a more or less performance boost when I switch from Vista 32bit to Win7 64bit.

and it is rock-solid. I get no lock ups or bluescreens. Even FSX do 11 hour flights with the Pmdg 747 very well.

Basically any 32 bit OS can handle 4GB memory max INCLUDING graphics.
So if you had a 2GB graphics card, the OS will detect no more than 2GB of your System RAM.
Because of this limitation, along with DirectX9 becomeing increasingly long in the tooth, I think we could see XP get ditched sooner.

Not sure what will happen to 32bit Vista and Win7 users as they are effected by the 4GB limit too.

Yes, of course over the 64 bit vs. 32 bit , and 64 bit is gaining "big grounds" fast,
you're completly right. As you se I've been 64 bit "hog" some time.
