I want to run Vista x64, but heard about some compatibility issues with some programs and actually need it for the 8GB of memory. I know Vista x32 will only read 3 GB Memory. What I want to know is there that many programs that will not run on x64? Should I stay with x32? I only have a few older programs like Lock-on Modern Combat and Flight sim X and want to run COD 4 and WaW. Will I be ok with this set-up? Replies will be much appreciated. Thanks

64 bit is virtually 32bit, not much difference apart from the utilisation of more ram and an extra folder called program files (x86), which is for every non-microsoft application, even if its native 64 bit software, it goes into x86 folder, theres practically no issues with backwards compatability, i got the ultimate doom running on vista x64 which was designed for windows 95, so i dont think you will have any problems, just drivers so check that your components have drivers and you will be fine.
Reason i asked is i bought my Smilodon without a PSU.
A friend was looking to get one for his new build so i thought i'd check for him as he needs the PSU.
Thanx.
