READ AND UNDERSTAND
- The amount of data sent throughout the system bus
depends on the size of the bus, i.e., 32-bit or 64-bit. - Latest computer system use a 64-bit bus, but majority still
uses 32-bit computing size. - 32-bit bus can only process 32-bit application software, or
else, the hardware will experience overheating. - 64-bit bus can process both 32-bit and 64-bit application
software.
