Now I'm ready for SC2 :D. My old computer was horrible couldn't even play 4v4 games without it lagging badly during mid/late game. What free games, e.g., maplestory, do you suggest I download now?

32 bit operating systems can only use up to 4GB of RAM. It's a mathmatical limit. Switching to 64 bit would allow you to fully utilise the 6GB's of RAM.

with PAE support on the motherboard and the right 32 bit OS you can use more than 4gb

but i would recommend a 64 bt OS

You can only use 3gb iirc. So half his ram is useless.

it's not 3 gb or 4 gb, a right OS with a right motherboard (read all current ones) can access up to 40ish GB of RAM. It's the single programs that cannot use more than 4 GB of RAM and even this is not true with NT and upper OSes, so no worries, just turn on the PAE bit from your BIOS, if it isn't already

Wrong, it's 4GB. 32Bit can allocate 4.294.967.296 bytes.
That Windows only shows about 3ish to the user (or will only use so much) is because the rest is reserved for hardware devices.
