Plus more and more apps are available in 64-bit versions these days, and an app optimized for 64-bit is generally going to be faster than one optimized for 32-bit. On the down side, sometimes 32-bit apps run slower under 64-bit Windows than 32-bit Windows. And older drivers might not work. But overall I'd say go for it - the ability to use more than 3GB alone makes it worth it.

That is my processor. And I have 4 gb of ram, If i get the 64 bit, I will get another 4 gb of ram.
I also have a GTX 260 Video card.
Is there any real benefit of going 64bit vs 32 bit?
