Hi guys,
I am going to build a new pc with an X2 5000 BE and a new 780G motherboard. I plan on using the integrated video and was wondering if I installed 4GB of ram and shared 512k with video, would the system take it off the top so to speak?(4GB - 512k) Or would windows vista(32bit) only recognize like 3.2GB and take the 512k from there? Sorry if this has been brought up before, but I dont have a lot of time to search here at work. Thanks for any help in advance.
