Just from my experience.
x64 will not give you a speed boost in general but takes advantage of
more memory.
Also specifically written applications for x64 will benefit of speed
as well.
Multiboot works great. I have Linux and Windows on the same machine.
32bit is history, the past. Sadly games are still 32bit mostly.
Professional applications should come also in x64 which will take
advantage over a x64 cpu.

Hi all,

Currently I have XP Pro 32-bits. Hardware is Intel I5-750 on a P55 chipset
with 4G memory.
I concider installing Win 7 Pro 64-bits, so I can use more memory.
Got a few questions he
a. Are applications on W7-64 with 8G noticable faster then XP-32 with 4G?
b. Does W7-64 allow a multi boot environment?
c. Are there more advantages of Win 7 Pro 64-bits over XP Pro 32-bits?

Thanks in advance for your answers.

Best regards,
