Just out of curiosity could a lite-c application use more than 2gb system memory resp. even 128gb on e.g. a win server 2008 system?

I think the maximum what you can use is 4 GB, becourse GS is a 32 Bit application and with a 32 Bit application is the maximum RAM what you can use 4 GB (mathematically). But in reallyty can you only use 3.5 GB (for example Win XP 32 Bit). So i think it is the same with 3DGS.

@White_Wolf: That limitation has to do with the processor, not with the application.

That's not true with 3DGS, at least not A6.

No, that is not correct. The limitation are give by more thinks as only the processor: 1) prozessor (not the problem, then all processors since 5 year or so, are all 64 bit processors) 2) the the motherboard (motherboards for privat user can use since one year more the 4 GB RAM. At the moment maximum 16 GB) 3) The OS (operation System). If you use a 32 Bit OS on a 64 Bit processor, the processor only use the fist 32 bit of his 64 bit. So that you can only use 4 GB (but realy you can use only 3.5 GB for example by XP 32 Bit) 4) Aplication if you start a 32 bit application on a 64 Bit system thay can only us 4 GB per application (becurse it runs in a simulation of a 32 bit system (in a 32 bit Environment), and per application why every application get his own 32 bit Environment:

Ya I second white wolf. I took my micro processors finals recently, and got an A. If I remember correctly the processor is a major part of memory limits because of the address but. But the motherboard itself, the available slots and the address bus of the board also need to be considered.

Well i guess A7 compiles always win32 executes - that musn't use more than 4gb. A simple 'there is the limit' or a lovely 'thats absolutely nonsense' from jcl would be nice. btw many desktop mainboards only support a value between 32 and 64bit memory addresses - so one can sell more boards
