Why does this still exist?

>>54495344
because fucking android phones

They will go 64bit exclusively soon.

also legacy, alot of apps dont need much more than 3gb of ram
>>
Because 32 is a number that exists
>>
most industrial computers/microcontrollers still run 32-bit
>>
lazy companies that don't want to upgrade, have no need for more than 4 gig ram.
>>
>>54495344
why wouldn't it?

It's old shite and needs to be killed desu fampai

You can tell Microsoft wants to drop 32 bit support so badly, I'm guessing the corporate world won't let them though.
>>
>>54495344
Still better than x86_64.
>>
Because a large portion of the world is completely unaware that for the two most popular instruction set architectures, the difference between 32 bit and 64 bit is more than just more addressable RAM.

Low end PCs. Works fine for things like personal home server. Not everyone is a gaymer manchild

but most microcontrollers are 8 and 16-bit, a full 32-bit design is way overcomplicated for lots of control jobs
shit there are even 1-bit microcontrollers, I kind of want one to play with

I'm still using a 33 bit processor.

What's wrong with that?
