Hi,

1GB minimum and 16GB's maximum.

The official minimum (the amount needed to get it to work at all)
is 64MB.

But that's far too little for reasonable performance. How much
memory you need depends on what apps you run, but almost everyone
needs at least 256MB for decent performance. For some people, for
example those who edit large photographic images, more than
256MB--even much more--can be required for good performance.

Oops! My apologies. The above is not correct. I missed the
"64-bit edition" in your question.

I'm not familiar with the 64-bit edition and don't hve an answer
for you.

A piece of advice, though: ask your question in the body of the
message, not in the subject line. Although it's true that I
should have read more carefully, by doing it the way you did, you
made it harder.

Can you test the Asus A8N-E Premium motherboard while you're at it.

Minimum ram requirement is 128 mb

But: That is always liable to be the absolute minimum to allow the
system to boot. Allow twice as much to make it able to run any
reasonable program, and four times (156 MB) if you want a fair job mix
loaded
