If you really think that you're never going to use a 64-bit machine, then you're a moron. In fact, by that logic you should still be running Windows 3.1 on a machine with a 16 bit processor. Everything progresses over time - we will eventually be running something lines of a machine with a 256 core 4GHz machines, 64GB of RAM and a graphics card with 128 parallel GPUs.

The only difference between a 16-bit, 32-bit and 64-bit architecture is simple - instructions and memory addresses use a different number of bytes. For 16 it's 2, for 32 it's 4 and for 64 it's 8. The benefit is that you can build better instruction sets (more instructions and more space for parameters), and you can of course use more memory. Furthermore you can deal with larger numbers in your software, which makes large number calculations (physics included) faster and easier.


Thanks for googling, i already know this little fact.

No need to be rude. I didn't Google that. Contrary to your ungrounded belief I do actually know what I'm talking about. I work with PIC microprocessors and FPGA/DSP ICs as a hobby.

10 years ago the standard was like 128mb
So it will take around 10 years for 16+gigs to be the standard


i don't know about that, but i agree that 16 gigs of RAM won't be a standard for quite a while now. what are people going to be running on a day-to-day basis that will require so much RAM anyway?


dude, when you say standard computers will have 16GRAM, don't include NASA or Hosting Servers, i'm talking about home computers.

I am talking about home computers
Within 10 years at least 16gig WILL be normal, I'll bet ya 10Billion dollars for it

In 10 years 16gigs will be sub-standard, I'd say 5 years 16GB will be standard.
