Hey guys Ive got a question for you all.
So I bought an ASUS M70Vm-x1 with 4gb of ram and a T9400 (2.53ghz) and a directx 10 GPU with 512mb of VRAM. Now, my operating system tells me that I am only utilizing 3gb of the total installed 4gb of RAM. This is no suprise because I already know Vista 32bit can only allocate 3gb of RAM. However, my question is if I install Vista Ultimate 64bit on my laptop instead of Vista Home Premium 32bit will this cause a dangerous ammount of strain on the laptop to the point where theres a risk of failure or any long or short term problems? I know that 64bit OS's are more performance OS's but would it be a bad idea to put it on my laptop?
By strain I mean any sort of pressure that could shorten the life of my laptop because of overheating or other problems? I just dont want to put Vista Ultimate 64bit on my laptop only to have it fail or have the life of the processor or RAM shortened.
Thanx
