ok so my question is pretty easy does windows 7 32-bit only limit ram or other specs of my pc.

Specs:
amd radeon 7750
i5-4430
b85m-p33 motherboard
8 gb ram
 
Solution
It will limit the RAM and you can only run 32-bit programs, unless the 64-bit program is written backward compatible. Many of the releases come in both 32-bit and 64-bit applications (i.e. Photoshop has both, Office has both, etc.).

I cant do this because the code for my windows produce is off my pc which is hp so i have to go to there site but the only option to get a disk from them is to order a recovery disk from them that is $40 or so dollars which isn't helping my case.
