The main problem with Borland C++ is that it is still a 32bit compiler.
Borland C++ is a 32-bit compiler, I believe the latest version is 5.5 and it came out in about 2000.
There is a newer version from Embarcadero, 7.20 from 2016[1].
The compiler in C++Builder is more modern and it will target 64-bit for Windows at least.[0]

Which is why there is a new clang based compiler now.
They say right on the release announcement that they have a clang-based compiler and that the system supports 64-bit binaries.
This is C++ Builder, not Borland C++.
