I heard somewhere that a 32-bit chip can only handle up to 2 gigabytes of RAM. IF there was enough room on the motherboard would the chip be able to handle more? Also, would dual processors or multicore processors help? What is the max that a 64-bit chip can handle?

Edit: Also, besides more RAM capabilities what advantages does 64-bit have over 32-bit?

<strong>Actually, 64-bit addressing is good up to 4 exabytes or 4 million gigbytes. Does anybody know of an applications currently in use that need more?</strong><hr></blockquote>
