One question about 32 bit and 64 bit version :)

Help & support for Ultimate Edition 1.8


One question about 32 bit and 64 bit version :)

Postby Frontline » Wed Jul 30, 2008 4:23 am

Different in these two versions of Ultimate Edition 1.8 are one is x86 and other is x64, aren't they?
All applications, packages, drivers in 32 bit version there are in 64 bit version?
And which is better for Games, Application "Programs" , Music , Video etc...x86 or x64.I read Topics in this forum and i think x64 is for server machines, not for entertainment.
Sorry for my bad english but I'm in process of development. :) :D :) ;)
Thanks : P~

Howdy Frontline & Welcome to Ultimate Edition!! :D The short and sweet of it is the x64 is much faster for some systems...as for the games, there are more that run on x86 (32bit), but also there are more coming out everyday that run on x64. As far as Apps, Music, etc...they're both running the same, but x64 would be better at it in those areas...it really comes down to personal preference. One way to make your final decision is to try both. Either one takes less than 1/2 an hour to install, so it's easy enough to try one out for a few days then load the other. OR....load'em both up and dual boot!!! Ultimate Edition Gamers comes with nearly all the games installed, the rest can be installed with the Upgrade button on the Desktop. In x64, you can use TheeMahn's new Ultamatix to install all the games that come on it, which are mostly all that come on the Gamers version. And of course, you'll get all the help you'll need right here in our own little Ultimate Edition family! The choice is entirely yours what you want to do... :D 8-)

Thanks for your completely reply.
I will put x64 bit version.
I browse in internet and I found interestingly articles about x64.
I already read about Ultamatix and i will put it, but i play only 3 games . Counter Strike 1.6, Counter Strike Source and Warcraft III Frozen Throne.But still there is i've got plenty of time
to play other games ;]
I have one question, i have ATI Radeon 9550.
These 3 games run perfect in Windows.Are they will run perfect in ubuntu, because i know drivers for ubuntu aren't as good as drivers for windows althought linux is stable system : )~ : D

Well, that one I'm not much help with (I have nVidia), but we do have some in here with the ATI and I'm sure one of'em will be along & expand on this. But you are right about the ATI support for Linux...ATI's a little weak in that area...Like I said, one of the others will (hopefully fairly soon) comment further on the ATI deal... :) 8-)

Ok ;).
Now i look, the founder of Ultimate Edition have ATI card :D <BREW>
Let's wish ati publish some better drivers.
I read this article :
viewtopic.php?f=10&t=14
When i install Ultimate Edition 1.8 I just run EnvyNG.... or
Code: Select all
Pay close attention to the order in which video drivers go in

1. Install Ultimate Edition DVD
2. initial bootscript I install acro read and flash no video drivers yet.
3. Run upgrade script, let it complete this upgrades the kernel - still no video drivers installed.
4. reboot
5. Install Video drivers

I see this article is for nvidia, but ...
What i do when the installation of Ultimate Edition finished ?
Just run EnvyNG or execute the article ?

I don't have any ATI cards personally, I would still follow the steps listed and just select 'ATI' drivers instead of Nvidia. Hope everything goes ok for ya <BREW> If you get in a jam ... we do have an in-house ATI guy that is pretty darn good at video driver issues.

I installed the latest ATI driver (8-6) using ENVY NG, and so-far-so-good with my system.
I was having issues with the earlier (8-4) driver in both Ultimate Edition 32 and 64-bit.
All I can say is give it a try and see what happens...
