    Thank you for your reply. I already have ATi Radeon HD4770 512MB DDR5 GPU installed and I intend to upgrade to 64bit. Honestly, I am not yet sure about Windows 8. Isn't it still in "Release Candidate" avatar?

    Upgrading OS, help me to decide and how to proceed

    Thanks, but I think my original doubt still remains unanswered... In case I add another 2GB of RAM, then I believe the programs should run faster because now the OS will be able to map the rest of the RAM. BTW, at present, though I have 3GB installed, itonly shows 2.75GB.

    Upgrading OS, help me to decide and how to proceed

    Thanks friends It seems like Win 7 64 bit is the path to take. Basically I was reading an article about Photoshop CS6 (most probably on official site, can not recall), and it was mentioned there that to use it's full potential, it is necessary to use a 64bit system. As I work a lot with photos...
