64 bit operating system or new graphics card?

[soccer!!!!]

i just built my gaming computer and I want to know which one of those is more important. im gonna get both eventually but I can only afford 1 at the moment. my set up is:

intel i5 3ghz cpu
4gb ram (only 2.9 usable cuz of my current 32 bit operating system)
graphics: intel HD 2000 (i want the radeon hd6770 1gb)

so what would increase my gaming speed and performance more, the hd6770 or a 64 bit windows 7?

how many slots for ram do you have. Far as I know the browser you use has no effect on the games you play, be it IE or chrome or firefox.
Good graphis as well as lots of ram should give you the desired results. Just be sure to check to see if the radeon hd6770 1gb will be compatible with your mobo

The video card is going to be your best performance booster. A 64bit Operating System has little or no effect on Gaming unless the game is written in 64bit/requires more then 3GB or memory. 99% of games are not 64bit, and very few are going push you over the 3GB mark.

My company specifically does performance tuning for gaming system.

Overall getting 64 bit will increase your overall pc speed but for gaming a new gpu is 100x better for performance
