32bit OS versus 64bit OS

I have been joining compur society since I am in Form1,till today it made a 6 years period joining the society. My society's activity was held every Friday and we make a presentation about IT Technology every week.

Today, we made a presentation which its title was" 32bitOS vs 64bitOS"

As we know, OS means operating system.For example, Windows Vista, XP,MAC, Linux.

So what i want to share is information of both the OS.

It's clear that Windows XP Professional x64 Edition will provide the necessary support for the 64 bit applications, but it will take another year for their appearance. Until then, those who'll chose to install this version of Windows will have to run 32-bit applications. So the next question arises: Is it worth it to install the 64-bit Windows and give up your old Windows XP? To answer this question, we have put together a test, whose main objective was to identify if the performances of the Windows x64 are better than the ones of Windows x32.

On my opinion, 64 bit OS provide a better performance than 32 bit but most drivers still support only 32bit OS. So, due to the question, which is better, my answer will always be "It depends"
