Why is my virtual memory bigger than my physical memory?
Physical memory is the RAM which you have placed on your motherboard, so if u have 4 slots which support 4 GB max it will equal 16 GB.Virtual memory is the amount of virtual memory allocated by the user & resides on the Hard Disk (Pagefile.sys). There is no limit to the amount of virtual memory which a user can set on a PC. It all depends on the size of the hard disk.
How much space could you allocate for unlimited RAM?
RAM (Random Access Memory) is a physical chip that is inserted into your motherboard inside your computer. Allocating 'space' on your computer to act as RAM is called 'virtual memory'. Virtual memory can be increased as long as you have room on your hard drive to allocate. Physical memory can be increased by replacing the chips on your motherboard. Quite simply, to allocate an unlimited amount of space for RAM would only depend on how large your hard drive(s) were or how many slots on your motherboard existed.

What is virtual memory-?
When dealing with computers, there are typically two types of memory. "Real" or "physical" memory is the same thing as RAM. They usually come as cards that you can install into slots on your computer's motherboard. "Virtual" memory, also known as "swap space" or (in Windows) a "paging file" is a dedicated partition or (in Windows) a file on your hard drive that acts like physical memory does. Even though both types of memory do the same thing (that is, storing things temporarily for easy access), physical memory is substantially faster than the typical hard drive. Don't consider virtual memory a replacement for RAM, but more of a complement - to catch the overflow, if you will.
