    It wouldn’t be much different. Was it noticeably different when you went from a 32 bit to 64 bit computer?

      For me it was, actually. Maybe because I was late to the party so people stopped developing shit for 32 bits, and when I did the transition was like “Finally, I can install shit” also my computer was newer and the OS worked better.

        So your PC was old (thus the new one faster) and its HW no longer supported by some software developers (because it was outdated and not enough users were on it anymore). The same can hold true if you have a 5 year old PC now. You didn’t notice this due to going 64bit, you noticed it due to going away from a heavily outdated system.
