14) Microprocessors Architectures of 32 and 64 bits. - In the world of computing, the 32 and 64 bits refer to the type of central processing unit or CPU, the operating system, drivers and software. All of them use the same architecture. In this way all the components speak "the same language", and the only ones can function correctly with the others. In general, the most used architectures today are two. On the one hand are the 32-bit, whose software is also known as x86, and 64-bit hardware whose software is also known as x64 or x86-64 which in turn is also known as AMD64.
