64bit, more than 24gb, cant remember how much. 32bit, is 3.4gb max.

Well the 64-bit versions are limited by the windows 7 package. So for example the home premium version is limited to 16GB of R.A.M. and the professional and ultimate editions are limited to 192GB of R.A.M.

Yeah I can't think of any program which would need or could even utilize that much.

another question, do i have room to upgrade/add things to this pc system? for e.g i will add an exisiting wirless card to it which i have got lying around from my old pc. also in future i would think of add some more ram- maybe 2gb more or even 4gb more. will i be able to do this?

Yes, but, if I remember correctly your motherboard supports dual-channel memory kits, so its best to add your memory in multiples of 2 sticks.

I seem to remember some such quote about 48K of memory many many many years ago when the likes of the Speccy were around

so i cant add in totoal, 2gb ram stick ; 2gb ram stick ; 2gb ram stick , 2gb ram stick ?

 

[Sleinous]

no no no, you can. What I mean is, say you have 2GB | 2GB and you just add ONE more 2GB, then this isnt near as effective as 2GB | 2GB | 2GB | 2GB (yes I know theres 2GB more but... the motherboard support dual-channel so 2 memory modules work TOGETHER is what im trying to get at

There's 4 slots available (8GB total with 4x2GB sticks) but it can support up to 16GB of RAM if you put in single 4GB sticks.
