I'm not exactly sure what you're asking here, but I can tell you that any file or program that has "x86" in it is NOT intended for a 64-bit CPU/system. When something IS intended for 64-bit hardware, the file name will instead contain "x64".

It MAY be possible to install 64-bit Vista on an x86 (or 32-bit) machine, but not only would you NOT get whatever performance advantages 64-bit has over 32-bit, you would almost certainly have PROBLEMS as a result.

How much RAM will vista support?

Most recent PC video games will have their Minimum System Requirements displayed on the packaging it came in. Refer to this chart to see how much RAM is recommended for your games. If you can not find the Minimum System Requirements, I would recommend two 2GB sticks of RAM, for 4GB total. The price for a "Dual Channel Kit" with 4GB of RAM total is relatively low compared to 8GB Dual Channel Kits and not much more expensive than 2GB Dual Channel Kits.
