It's a 32bit chip anyway, can they even support more than 4GB of RAM? (or even all of that - PCs couldn't, it was 3.5 - 3.7GB visible to apps)

- vidarh 13y agoPC's can/could via PAE. Each application could only address 4GB (of which some would need to be set aside for mapping in other stuff than application data). Don't know if 32bit ARMs support hacks like that, though.
- m_ram 13y agoIt looks like the latest 32-bit ARM chips have this capability [1]: 40-bit Large Physical Address Extensions (LPAE) addressing up to 1 TB of RAM. As per the x86 Physical Address Extension, still only 32-bit address space is available per process.

- socceroos 13y agoI'm pretty sure they're putting an Intel chip in this one.
