sirbow2 Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 its probably because your computer doesn't support 64BIT so the ram limit is ~3.2GB for 32-bit Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/230285-ram-problem/#findComment-1538593 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gringo Vermelho Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 its probably because your computer doesn't support 64BIT so the ram limit is ~3.2GB for 32-bit No, that's a Windows thing. 32-bit OS X can use up to 32GB RAM, even with a CPU that doesn't have EM64T instruction set. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_Address_Extension Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/230285-ram-problem/#findComment-1538722 Share on other sites More sharing options...
