A graphic design firm is upgrading its workstation to run intensive design software and wants to install more than 4 GB of RAM. Which processor architecture must the new PC include to use this additional memory?
A 64-bit processor architecture can address a vastly larger memory space than a 32-bit architecture. While typical 32-bit designs are limited to about 4 GB of addressable RAM, 64-bit CPUs and operating systems can access terabytes of physical memory. Choosing a 64-bit processor therefore allows the workstation to recognize and use more than 4 GB of RAM, improving performance with memory-hungry design applications.
