32 bit vs 64 bit

Post by Nikhil »

Does MXS run better on x64 or x86? I've got 8GB of ram, but I've heard that if a game is written for x86 it'll run better on that version of Windows.

32-bit doesn't support anything more than 4gb I don't think.

I doubt it'll run better when it uses LESS RAM, but I'm not sure.

Well right, but I can't imagine MXS taking up so much ram that became an issue.

MX Sim is 32 bit, but it should run at full speed on a 64 bit OS.

Just do a double install of 32-Bit?

You will also be on Windows 14
