Do I really need XP64?
I am building a new computer as follows:
ASUS A8N-E AMD 3800+ X2 2 GB Dual Channel Corsair XMS Twin 2X1GB RAM WD 300 GB 3.0SATA EVGA 7600GT VIDEO Card 2 X NEC 4330 DVD RW Sony Floppy Thermaltake 430W Power Supply Thermatake Suprano Case I have a new XP Pro 32 bit--Do I really need the 64 bit version? I am not into heavy CAD, even though I do open CAD files. I do get into some Photoshop apps, though. |

If all your apps have been running fine on 32bit then NO you don't need 64..

Negative. It'll be years before XP64 is ready for prime time.... not to mention that a lot of folks, like myself, still have 16bit programs that will mostly not even run on XP64 now or in the future.

Thanks, for saving me some money and time! I won't be buying XP64 anytime soon!
