“Most of today’s microprocessors are “32-bit,” which means they process data 32 bits at a time. It also refers to the size of the “pointer,” which determines how much data the processor can address directly. Current 32-bit processors can address 4 gigabytes of data.“
“The industry has been gradually moving toward a 64-bit architecture, which multiplies the amount of data the processor can access by four.”
