One limitation of a 16 bit processor, compared to a 64 bit processor, is computing speed.
A 16 bit process can process 2 bytes (8 bits = 1 byte) of information per clock cycle.
While a 64 bit processor can process 8 bytes of information per clock cycle, making the 64 bit processor four times faster than a 16 bit processor.

What actually you mean by 64-bit when you say 64 bit processor?
64bit processors have most registers specially the integer registers as 64bit. It can handle 64bit wide internal and external data. All internal and external buses may or may not be 64bit wide. - Neeraj Sharma
Can you run 32-bit Windows XP on a 64-bit process?
No, not unless all of the following .Confirm that the computer's processor and motherboard are both 64bit. All 64bit Windows Operating systems will only work on computers that have both 64bit processor and 64bit motherboard architectures.Confirm the computer has no less then the other minimum hardware requirements (Processor Speed, Ram memory, Hard Drive memory, etc.) for the Windows 7 64bit version you want to install.Windows XP 32bit must be removed/deleted before doing a clean install of Windows 7 64bit on the hard drive.
How much memory can a computer use?
It all depends on the architecture that the processor is built on. If it is 32 bit architecture, 2^32 it will be 4gb. If it is a 64bit processor it can access 2^64 memory locations, or 16gb.
What is the minimum CPU speed and memory to run windows 7 64bit?

The PowerPC 601 processor addresses a maximum of 232 bytes of memory. What is the maximum number of 64-bit words that can be stored in the memory?
29 64bit words.
Is there a LOL 64bit version?
There is not. And that is because 64bit can run 32bit, but 32bit has problems running 64bit.
