The maximum RAM limit for a Windows 32-bit version is 4GB. This is because 32-bit operating systems can only address up to 4GB of memory.
The reason for this limit has to do with how the operating system addresses memory. A 32-bit operating system uses 32 bits to address memory locations. Each bit can represent either a 0 or a 1, which means that a 32-bit system can address up to 2^32 (or 4,294,967,296) memory locations. Since each memory location represents one byte of memory, a 32-bit system can address up to 4GB of memory.
It's important to note that this 4GB limit includes all types of memory, including physical RAM as well as virtual memory (i.e., the page file). This means that even if you have more than 4GB of RAM installed in your system, a 32-bit operating system will not be able to use all of it.
If you need to use more than 4GB of RAM, you will need to use a 64-bit version of Windows. 64-bit operating systems can address much larger amounts of memory (up to 2^64, or about 18.4 billion gigabytes), which means they can take advantage of systems with large amounts of RAM.
