Hello , I am Shield and I have a question about 32-Bit Windows with a 64-Bit Hardware.
I recently got a Ultrabook which i bought just for mobility and watching FHD Movies and attaching to a TV for music and party output and for *Read below* . It's a detachable Acer Laptop with an amazing built quality but with [i5 3317U](http://ark.intel.com/products/65707/Intel-Core-i5-3317U-Processor-3M-Cache-up-to-2_60-GHz) . Yes , that's a dual core with 4 threads and supports Hyper-Threading. But I don't know why a 32-Bit Windows 7 Ultimate OS was pre-installed in this.
Everywhere in the web it shows me it's a 64 Bit hardware, but that's not a logic for using x86 OS having a x64 CPU.Should I upgrade to 64-Bit OS? Should I buy a new OS?
- Is it because of the Ram or something? (That's my guess)
-I have all 64 Bit Software and everything that cost upto $499 (Sony Vegas 13 PRO Suite) and If that dosen't work my money and work go to real waste.
-It was released in 2012 Q2 so it should be 64 Bit (The other guess)
My Specs (If it helps)-
1080x1020
4 GB Ram , (2.60) 1.60 Shared with Intel HD 4000 Display Driver
i5 -3317U 1.7 Ghz (Turbo 2.6)
Windows 7 Ultimate 32 Bit
1 TB 7200 RPM
Nvidia GT 640M 2GB

That's of coarse is not for gaming. For Gaming a Desktop GTX 970M 4GB and a i7 5820K (x64) with 12 Gigs of DDR4 Ram (3x4GB) @ 2402.42 Mhz and a AlienWare for my office with office Copyright OS attached (if that helps).
