Multi Core Processors

I am working with NX3 on a computer with an intel xeon quad core
processor and 8gigs of ram. This is a 32bit application running
on 64bit windowsXP. While generating extremely large drawings I
max out at 25% cpu use and 4 gigs of ram as I would expect. I am
really just wondering if there are 64 bit versions of NX3/4/5.
And if there are, are they able to break up the processing for
something like generating a single view. Oddly enough I am able
to generate the views I want on the old and somewhat outdated single
core peocessors of the UNIX boxes if I let think for a day or so.
Do I need to convince IT to upgrade quick or spare some of the old
machines?
