No, the PS4 is capable of having 64 or even 128 bits in their components.   Where are you seeing it would only be 32 bits?  I'm only asking so I can clarify that part of my post that is confusing you.

Ah I see, I don't really know, I just assumed that since it was 32bit it was limited to that... 

Also, I think I've heard this before, but isn't it easier to work with 32bit than 64bit? I can't remember where I heard it, but apparently it is.

... And isn't 32bit limited to 4GB RAM anyway? How does that work out if it has 8GB?

What is 32 bit?

32 bit was easier to work for several years ago in the Windows environment because that's what everything was designed around.  That's not relaly teh case today not is it even relevant outside of the Windows environment.

32 bit systems on Windows were limted to about 3.7 GB's because that is all it could address.   Physical Address Extension was added later that allowed for 32 bit system to address more than the "4 GB" limit but it too is irrelevant outside the Windows environment anyway.
