The garbage collection on a 128-bit processor will take most of it's power, that's one of the main reasons why the benefit is not going to make it worthwhile for a lot of years. Another thing is that the yield, meaning how many of the produced processors will actually work, also will be very low, meaning that the price will be astronomical.
