<div dir="ltr">the 32 bit and 64 bit are just the bit width that the processors use. from running a search on your processor, it's a 64 bit processor and you would be better off getting the 64 bit version of ubuntu to take advantage of the processor. the 32 bit version may not work well. but, just because you have 2 GB of RAM doesn't mean you're stuck with that. Usually a 64 bit processor can address up to 8 GB. go with the 64 bit so it'll run like it should. why your specs say 32 bit operating system is weird. you really should have the 64 bit OS.<div>

The website says the 32-bit version is for machines with less than 2.00 GB of RAM.<br>
<br>
Apparently my machine has exactly 2.00 GB of RAM.<br>
<br>
Does this mean that the 64-bit version is going to be barely adequate?<br>
Would I get better results from the 32-bit?<br>
<br>
The specs on my computer are;<br>
<br>
AMD Turion 64x2 mobile Technology TL-58 1.90GHz<br>
2.00 GB RAM<br>
32-bit Operating System<br>
<br>
Sorry, I am new to all of this.<br>
