What's the memory cap for 64-bit systems

You know how on 32-bit systems it can only use like 3gb of RAM? How much is that cap for 64-bit systems?

"192GB in higher-end Windows 7 systems, but at low as 2 in some cases :)

"2 ^ 32 = 4gb
2 ^ 64 = 18446744100000000000 = 16 exabytes

(nb google rounded and I don't feel like finding something with > 8 digit)"
