128-bit
There are currently no mainstream general-purpose processors built to operate on 128-bit (16 octets) integers or addresses, though a number of processors do operate on 128-bit data. System/370, made by IBM, could be considered the first rudimentary 128-bit computer as it used 128-bit floating point registers.
