Hi all,

Its been a very long time since I've been on this website. I'm thinking of buying this barebone and purchase Win 7 with it. I need you guys opinion on what I want to buy from CompUSA....Thank you in advance!!!

MSI 785GTM-E45 DiabloTek Barebones Kit - MSI 785GTM-E45 Motherboard, AMD Phenom X4 9750 CPU, CPU Fan, Patriot 2GB DDR2 RAM, Seagate 500GB HDD, DiabloTek Elite ATX-Mid Tower Case, 450W Power Supply(16.3 lbs) for $199.99

Also what is the difference on using the 32-bit vise the 64-bit on Win7? does it have to do with the graphics? I notice it takes alot of memory. I'm deciding on going with the 64-bit but any advise will help.

Fred :)

32 bit is limited to 4 GB of ram.
With 64 bit , your motherboard limits the amount of usable ram.
Go with 4GB minimum and you will be happy.
