ram vs. bit question

Name: Anonymous 2007-05-29 4:45 ID:gQHvQZwc

i dont exactly know what im talking about, but from what ive heard, a 32 bit system cant handle more then 4 gigs of memory at one time, this is pressing for me because im buying 8 gigs for a new computer, but if its a 32 bit OS is there a point in buying all that ram?

op here, and yes, im not sure if i want to run linux or windows yet, is this such a big deal? i wanted to widen my perspective before i bought the system so i dont wind up buying 2 OS's and blowing an extra $150. so this is the process of me planning more...

also, whats the ram capabilities of the various linux OS's?
