Im in the process of building my new PC.... it will have a total of 4gigs of RAM. My question is do I really need to install the 64bit version of XP or VISTA ????/ What are the downsides if I did the 32bit version???? I just want to make sure all of my software will be compatible and my system stable. I understand the 32bit version will only show me using about 3gigs or RAM but does that really matter a lot?

Thanks.
