Okay thanks..I only intend to run it in single mode for now until I upgrade my system to 64bit..

hitman Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 Little known fact: Vista and Win7 both ship with an x86 and x64 based disk. If you still have your license key, you can download a 30 day trial x64 disk and install it using your license. And you should move to a 64 bit system, that way you dont waste any resources with your computer. 1 Intel 13900k @ 5.8ghz | 64gb GSkill Trident Z | MSI z790 Meg ACE | Zotac RTX4090 | Asus 1000w psu | Slaw RX Viper 2 pedals | VPForce Rhino/VKB MCE Ultimate + STECS Mk2 MAX / Virpil MongoosT50+ MongoosT50CM | Virpil TCS+/ AH64D grip/custom AH64D TEDAC | Samsung Odyssey G9 + Odyssey Ark | Next Level Racing Flight Seat Pro | WinWing F-18 MIPS | No more VR for this pilot.

sammaz Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 Win7 Ultimate x64 here...You really get the impression that the 64-bit (12 lane freeway) is being used in this sim.

Bee_Sting Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 can i ask you a question? what do you have a high processor,12g ram,but a low end gpu?
Hamblue Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 The 64 bit spec is more to allow for higher memory use. With 32 bit you are limited to 4gig of ram, that includes the video card memory. Asus Sabertooth P67 Motherboard 2600k CPU, 16 gig DDR3, 1600. Samsung 830, 256 gig hard drive, GTX780 Video Card, Warthog Hotas, Razer Mamba mouse. Saitek Combat Rudder Pedals.

tintifaxl Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 The 64 bit spec is more to allow for higher memory use. With 32 bit you are limited to 4gig of ram, that includes the video card memory. In general: very wrong. Only if you have a gpu that uses shared memory. Windows 10 64bit, Intel i9-9900@5Ghz, 32 Gig RAM, MSI RTX 3080 TI, 2 TB SSD, 43" 2160p@1440p monitor.
Nate--IRL-- Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 In general: very wrong. Only if you have a gpu that uses shared memory. Nope it isn't - 32bit windows can only address a 32bit memory space. If you have a 1gb GPU and 4gb of RAM, windows can only access 3gb of RAM. Nate Ka-50 AutoPilot/stabilisation system description and operation by IvanK- Essential Reading
secret1962 Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 With my windows 7 32 bit I am limited to 3,22 GBs of ram even if I have 4 GBs. I also have a 1 GB GPU. Thinking on moving to a 64 bit system soon.
ALDEGA Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 In general: very wrong. Only if you have a gpu that uses shared memory.He's not wrong. Addressable memory on a 32-bit desktop version of Windows is limited to 4GB. This is reduced by the address space used by devices such as video cards. (which could be signficant nowadays). The address space of the devices overlaps with the address space of the "physical memory" ("RAM"), making part of the physical memory unaddressable. Address space per user-mode process (applies to "supported" versions of Windows): 32-bit app / 32-bit Windows / app is not "large address aware" (= default): 2GB 32-bit app / 32-bit Windows / app is "large address aware" and /3GB flag is set: 3GB (or between 2GB and 3GB when using USERVA switch) 32-bit app / 64-bit Windows / app is not "large address aware" (= default): 2GB 32-bit app / 64-bit Windows / app is "large address aware": 4GB 64-bit app / 64-bit Windows / app is "large address aware" (= default) : 8TB 64-bit app / 64-bit Windows / app is not "large address aware" : 2GB Source: MSDN
ALDEGA Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 32bit windows can only address a 32bit memory space.This is not valid for some server versions of 32-bit Windows (Enterprise and Datacenter editions), which can use up to 64GB of physical memory using "Physical Address Extension".
Nate--IRL-- Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 This is not valid for some server versions of 32-bit Windows (Enterprise and Datacenter editions), which can use up to 64GB of physical memory using "Physical Address Extension". As far as I can remember the application still must reside within a 4gb address space, even with PAE. IIRC PAE provides multiple 4gb address spaces, not a contiguous space larger than 4gb.

ALDEGA Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 PAE is not related to extending 32-bit user-mode process address space. Strictly speeking it is possible to access more than 4GB per 32-bit user-mode process using Address Windowing Extensions ... or you could to the sane thing and go 64-bit ...
