False, Broadway is a 64bit processor.

  • 90 nanometer process technology
  • Power Architecture core, specially modified for the Wii platform
  • IBM silicon on insulator (SOI) technology
  • Backward compatible with the Gekko processor
  • 729 MHz
  • 32-bit integer unit
  • 64-bit floating-point (or 2 × 32-bit SIMD, often found under the denomination "paired singles")
  • 64 kB L1 cache (32 kB instruction + 32 kB data)
  • 256 kB L2 cache
  • 2.9 GFLOPS

External bus

  • 64-bit
  • 243 MHz
  • 1.944 gigabytes per second bandwidth

Only the integer unit is listed at 32 bit.


IBM says it's 32-Bit

I suppose you think that the Pentium 3 is a 128-Bit CPU because it has a SIMD 128-bit Floating point register lol

The instruction set of the Broadway is 32-Bit it's a 32-Bit CPU
