I haven't worked with any 32bit systems in a long while, so I am assuming that because a 32bit system will only utilize 4GB of RAM, the system will not let you go over 4095. The recommended size could possibly be a glitch in Windows 8.1 32bit.

I'm sure someone else could elaborate on this, but I think this may be why...

To remove the restriction on 32bit machines follow these steps.

Click Start > Click Run, now type regedit to Open the registry editor.

Look in the left pane and find the following registry subkey:
Code:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\SessionManager\MemoryManagem​ent

Now find these Pagingfiles values below, double-click on them to open it.
Change all the existing values, with the following values below:
Code:
c:\pagefile1\pagefile.sys 3000 4000
c:\pagefile2\pagefile.sys 3000 4000
c:\pagefile3\Pagefile.sys 3000 4000

You should now be able to go past 4095
