Uh, come again?

Hmm? o.O

Where did you get the bit depth of the OS from?

"as well as a native 64-bit architecture"

Doesn't that mean a 64bit OS? o.O

There are 2 differnt things you are looking at.   The bit depth of the CPU and the bit depth of the OS.   You can have a 64 bit CPU but a 32 bit OS.   Don't know why you would but you can.    Typically, if you have a 64 bit CPU, you'd use a 64 bit OS.

That said, what makes you think the PS4 is all 32 bit?   PS3's CELL was a combination of 32, 64 and 128 bit depending on what part of you CPU you are talking about.

Are you looking athte fact the CPU is x86 architecture and thinking that means 32 bit?  Because that article doesn't state the bit depth of either the CPU or OS.
