any experience with 64 bit PS, 64 bit OS? I've been doing some large panos that take FOREVER to run. Saving large files is also very slow.

Does 64 bit help?

ALSO, with 64 bit using over 4G ram, 8G help?


tell me what you think, change it and post it

Tom, I am running a PC with Vista Ultimate 64bit and also use Photoshop 64bit. I only have 6 gigs of RAM however and I usually don't work with very large files, so can't help you out in the speed area. I do feel like PS 64bit and OS 64 bit do give me a faster machine, in general, however. So far I have had no problems.

You should try for the 8 of ram, it does make a difference. A good one in fact.


I've read "the thread" It's a given, go for it!!

But beware: older processors can't recognize that much. I'm running 64-bit CS4 on WIN7, and do think it's faster. However, my machine can only access ~3.5GB of 4GB RAM installed.
