Think this hardware will run ARR smooth?

Just to add: Some operating systems can't even use more than 4GB like 32 bit versions of Windows 7. In cases like that, adding more will do a person no good at all.

OH man I really hate that. I mean I know about it so its cool for me but I get people asking me "why isnt my system using all its memory". And I face palm at microsoft and ask "Are you running 64bit pro version?" and they say no and then I face palm at microsoft again.

Why facepalm at microsoft? 32 bit was a nessisary version of windows 7 for compatibility reasons.

Microsoft has ram limitations as part of the 64 bit versions. Home is 8gb but premium is 16gb. If you have 16gb but not premium windows 7 you have 8gb anyways.

Windows 8 has hilarious limits though 128(home)/512 gb(pro)...

128gbs.. looks like a server :P

Enjoy loading all of your programs into memory at once, and then shortly melting your cpu.

All I can think of about older windows is all the crashes and memory leaks >.>. Must.. re..star...t... blue screen (leaks more then blue screens but w.e I think its awkwardly funny when it happens at the same time).
