    windows 7 ultimate 64-bit in which computer should I install?


    My current computer is too slow for me and I want to upgrade it.
    My current computer specs.

    CPU: Intel Pentium Prescott 4, 3.00GHz, L2 Cache 1024 KBytes
    Motherboard: ASRock P4i65G
    Memory: 2GB DDR 400Mhz
    Chipset: i865G
    Graphic: Nvidia Geforce FX5200 128MB
    Audio: C-Media CMI9739A/9761 AC'97 Audio

    My cousin brought me two HP computers And I want to install windows 7 64-bit in one of them,
    the first computer is HP DX2000, spec.

    Socket: 478
    CPU: Intel Pentium 4 (SL7PM), 3.00Ghz, Bus speed 800Mhz, L2 Cache 1024 KBytes
    Motherboard: OEM (NR146)
    Memory: 4GB DDR 400Mhz
    Chipset: 865G
    Graphic: Intel 865G/GV Graphics
    Audio: ADI888 AC97 Audio
    LAN: Intel Gigabit Network Connection

    The second computer is HP DX5150 and his spec.

    Socket: 939
    CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3500+, 2.2Ghz, Bus Speed 1600, L2 Cache 512 KB
    Motherboard: OEM (MS-7050 ver2.0)

    Graphic: ATI RADEON XPRESS X200
    Audio: Realtek ALC6555 AC'97 Audio
    LAN: Broadcom BCM5751 NetXtreme Gigabit

    I'm considering to install windows 7 64-bit, because of memory size, I know 32-bit version can not work with this memory size,
    Therefore I want to know what your recommendation on this subject, in which PC I can install the windows 7 64-bit that will work smoothly with no problems?

    Thanks.

    You should run this application on both PCs:

    Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor - Download - Microsoft Windows

    You appear to be misinformed. Windows 32-bit will work fine with 4 GB of memory. It just won't be able to use all of that 4 GB--only about 3.3 GB.

    I think those 2 CPUs are quite close to each other in an overall benchmark.

    I would go with the Athlon 64 3500+ and do a "safe" overclock - should do around 2.6GHz with a Manchester core and if the mobo allows it. The 4GB of RAM will be just fine. The XPRESS X200 is about the same as the NVidia FX5200 so no benefit swapping it out.

    My "old games" box / Linux test box has a 3500+ on a Gigabyte board running at 2.66GHz, rock stable.
