there few programs take advantage of ram unless have 2 processors begin with. have 3 gb ram on dell laptop , found slight speed advantage in startup , connection speeds wifi. think depends on equipment. try live cd , see if helps before install. won't cost or dual boot both 32 bit , 64 bit on same hd in separate partitions. did or awhile before going strictly 64 bit.
