    However, the opposite is often true for newer 32-bit designs. For example, the Pentium Pro processor is a 32-bit machine, with 32-bit registers and instructions that manipulate 32-bit quantities, but the external address bus is 36 bits wide, giving a larger address space than 4 GB, and the external data bus is 64 bits wide, primarily in order ...

    The Siemens 7.700 and 7.500 series mainframes and their successors support 128-bit floating-point arithmetic. [4] Most modern CPUs feature single instruction, multiple data (SIMD) instruction sets ( Streaming SIMD Extensions , AltiVec etc.) where 128-bit vector registers are used to store several smaller numbers, such as four 32-bit floating-point numbers.
