Max Supported RAM

[Dound]

My motherboard has room for up to 3GB PC3200 DDR SDRAM.

What is the most Windows XP Pro supports? Is there a way
to utilize all 3GB of RAM?

Thanks ~ Dound

XP supports up to 4GB of RAM.

Trust me on this, XP, as is the case for every other version of Windows will
utilize all the RAM it can!

There is a point, depending on what a computer is used for, where stuffing more RAM in will have no gains.

Very true. For most users - even "power" users who play a lot of games &
maybe dabble in image editing, etc - more than 1GB of RAM gains you in the
real world nothing more than bragging rights (and an empty wallet..).
In my experience, anyway. YMMV.
