Hello everyone. I wanted to install windows using boot camp, mainly for gaming purposes. I have a 2011 MacBook Pro 15". I was curious as to which version of windows I should get? 32-bit or 64-bit? And if anyone is gaming through boot camp..how is it?

depends what type of games programs you plan on using on bootcamp, 32 bit vesion i believe only utilizes 4GB of ram so if you using thing that require more RAM than 4GB than install 64bit
