My edit above may explain how this misunderstanding came about:

Most new enthusiast systems these days have 64 bit CPUs and MOBOs which support memory remapping. Certainly most NEW ones do and since we are addressing a choice for a new system we assume the other conditions without mention. This may be the source of the misunderstanding. No one is suggesting that a 64 bit OS is, alone, enough to fix the 3 gig/4 gig problem.
 
XP is best to go with because you don't need so much ram and memory for it so you will have even more memory to play your games which means smoother game play
