Okay, so I'm a total noob ... which version of windows 7 should I opt for if I'm building a computer using the an Intel Core 2 Duo Q8200?

I do have 4GB of memory, so I'm leaning towards 64bit to take advantage of it ... pros and cons with going 64bit aside from the memory limit w/ 32bit?

Future ready.

Cons generally are specific and not experienced by everyone/most. Usually no reason not to run it.

In general Win 7 x 64.

Unfortunately you will have to do some searching and exercise in self decision.

You have to make a list of what you use, and make sure that it works with x64 OS.
