Johnny V. Perrez Bsit 1 - 3: Architectural Components 64-Bit Windows 32-Bit Windows

The document compares the architectural components and features of 64-bit and 32-bit Windows operating systems. 64-bit Windows systems have significantly larger capacities for virtual memory, paging files, caches, and pools compared to 32-bit systems. While 64-bit versions of Primavera P6 and Microsoft Project have additional features, they also have different file import/export compatibility compared to 32-bit versions. Usage statistics show Windows 7 has adopted 64-bit more while older operating systems remain mostly 32-bit.

Conclusion:

Simply put, a 64-bit processor is more capable than a 32-bit processor, because it can
handle more data at once. A 64-bit processor is capable of storing more computational values,
including memory addresses, which means it’s able to access over four billion times the
physical memory of a 32-bit processor. That’s just as big as it sounds.
