RYAN Petersen the cool CEO of OCZ technology, confirmed that the company is preparing to ship 4GB memory kits (2x2GB) shortly before Microsoft Vista shows up. Those guys do believe that you will need at least 2GB of memory for the good gaming experience on Vista.

That kind of confirms out story about vista and the gaming. You can read about that here and we also think that you will need at least 2GB to be happy.

Nevertheless the games will of course work even with 1024 MB memory and we can bet that people will run Vista with 512 MB but we are talking about the comfortable experience. Ryan also confirmed that they are excited about vista as the people will simply need more memory. What can make the memory guy happier than the sudden demand for its product?

Those guys are already selling 2 GB memory kits that quite a few gamers picked up already and those guys are sure that these guys will want to get to 4 GB with vista. Don’t think you will need 4 GB but many people that like to show off with their SLI / Crossfire machines will sure buy one. That is the not so far away future, and I can still remember giving away some serious money to buy an extra 64 MB module to play Shogo. That was just about eight years ago.

Nah with a 64 bit proccy u can theoretically access 16 million TB of memory. But what the OS can actually access is much less. Im not completely sure about this so correct me if im wrong, but xp 64 bit cannot access more than 4 GB of RAM while the server verison can.
 
Yeah, that's true, more than 4GB is a waste.

But for Vista I feel 4GB will give the kinda performance 1GB is giving us now.

Maybe ur right but i dont think so(and hope so). 4 GB on vista would probably give the kinda performance 2GB gives us now. Not that 2GB even gives much of a performance increase except for load times. Vista will run fine on 1GB of ram but the sweet spot will be 2 GB. 4 GB will be kinda like 2 GB is now, a bit of an overkill imho.
 
^^ Not at all !

I have used Vista Beta 1 personally and the final OS is gonna be awesome in all its glorious eye-candy..
