32bit OS's can only access 4GB of ram, some old server editions had workarounds to get past 4GB, but for home OS's they may or may not work, and are certainly more painful than installing a 64bit OS.

 

[13thmonkey]

HOME version of 32 bits windows 10 is limited to 16gb ram
HOME version of 64 bits windows 10 is limited to 16gb ram

Pro version of Windows 10 has no ram limitation.

of course unless you run an old system or a dell/hP/compact system design o not be able to be upgraded then it is possible that your bios will not recognize it.

what motherboard do you use ?

I'm not sure where you got your information from, but remarkably all of it is wrong, every single piece.

32bit win 10 4Gb
64bit win 10 128Gb (home) 2TB (all other editions) .

Sorry..I have to undo that Best Answer. It is spectacularly incorrect on all points.

I understand I was about to do it myself.,

being right, is immeasurably better than being fast, the OP may have already brought a 32bit OS... are you going to refund him?

Just to be perfectly clear, you must install a 64-bit version of Windows to use more than 4GB of memory.
