hi,
well im looking for a job and wen i get a months pay or if my plan works maybe 2 - 3 months pay then im looking to buy myself a nice computer
im just wondering how much RAM can a 64 bit OS handle / recognise ?
i mean i knowmy old school servers had like 16Gb RAM but they were running server 03 .. i think
but surely its a similar thing aint it or are server OS like 128 bit ?
the reason im asking is coz im thinkin of running a computer like a server and have all my comps connect to it and maybe run a virtual pc on there and stuff so pretty much im gonna need something that will handle all my resourcful taks but id like to be able to play a game on there without disrupting other tasks.
heres what im thinking i might jus use 1 months pay and get e6600 with 2 maybe 3 GB RAM
but i might get a Q6600 with 4GB RAM and im just wondering if its going to be upgradable ? and for the cheap price of RAM nowa days is it worth getting 8GB ?
i know i know its a complete overshot but like i said i want a comp that can handle resourceful stuff 24 hours a day then be able to let me play a game wen i want to ?
also is it worth waiting for DDR3 to become mainstream i mean i dnt got a job yet so it wont be till atleast 2 months time so wot can i expect and wot wud u suggest ?
