32-bit Windows has an address space of 4GB. Part of that is used by system BIOSes and graphics memory.
With a 256MB graphics card about 3.3-3.5GB of RAM can be addressed and used, assuming you have 4GB fitted.
If you fit a graphics card with 1GB of memory only about 2.6-2.8GB of the RAM would be addressable and usable.

Difference between 32 bit and 64 bit OS?
64 Bit is stronger and more stable then 32 bit. It is good if you want to play games, edit movies or do huge things that require more RAM. Speaking of RAM you can allocate more RAM for your uses in an application. While 32 bit computers have a set limit amount.
What is the difference between 32- bit drivers and 16 -bit drivers?
32 bit drivers are designed for 32 bit computers. 16 bit drivers are designed for 16 bit computers. Most modern computers are either 32 or 64 bit.
What is Maximum RAM support for 32 bit operating system?
32 bit OS support max 2^32 bit = 4GB RAM
Does 32 bit and 64 bit affect the CPU?
Not really. 32-bit Vs. 64 bit is more of a ram limitation more than anything. With 32 bit, your limited to 3 gigs of ram, with 64 bit, you can use an indefinite amount of ram. I have seen 64 bit servers capable of 52 gigs of ram.
Is a dell i7 with 8gb of ram 32 or 64 bit?
64 bit. If it were a 32 bit, you would max at a little less than 4gb RAM.
What is the most amount of RAM that can be used by a 32-bit installation of windows XP professional?
Approximately 3GB of RAM is the most that Windows XP 32 bit will recognize. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Right but wrong.... 4Gb of RAM is the maximum amount that can be addressed by a 32 bit operating system

What is the memory limitation of a 32 bit os?
a 32-bit OS is limited to 4 Gigabytes of ram
What is the difference between SQL Server 32-bit and SQL Server 64-bit application and how do you know whether a computer is 32-bit or 64-bit?
64 bit computers process data in larger chunks than 32 bit computers. This means a number of things, but the big 2 are: 1) When programs are written to support 64-bit processors, those programs will generally perform faster than on a 32-bit processor of the same speed. This is partially because 32-bit computers must handle 64-bit numbers in two steps, whereas 64-bit computers only need to use one step. 2) 64-bit processors can address more memory than 32-bit processors. This means your server can have more RAM, and therefore can store more data in memory, making memory-intensive programs like databases faster.
What is the RAM linit for a 32-bit OS?
For the 32-bit Windows 7 operating system, the RAM (random access memory) limit is set at 4GB. The 64-bit OS, however, has more flexibility in terms of RAM capacity.
When will Microsoft 32 bit computers be outdated?
never
What is the memory limitation for a 32-bit OS?
32-bit OS has many limitations. It can not use full 4 GB RAM or more that that. It can utilize only 3.7 GB of RAM.
