Please correct me if I am wrong, but one aspect of a 64 bit machine that I have read is that it will support a significantly larger amount of RAM than a 32 bit machine can.

I can't find the article I read but I seem to remember that in theory a 64 bit machine can utilize up to a terabyte of RAM.

Besides the ridiculous cost (that will not come doen to managebale level until we are all in diapers again) wouldn't having access to that much memory improve the performance of any sequencer/VST combo?

Isn't the combined power of CPU/RAM a huge factor in DAW stability regardless of what is hogging resources?

Again, I'm not arguing, only stating bits of what I have read and trying to better my understanding of this issue.

Peace!
