To determine how many times \( 2^{17} \) is as many as \( 2^{13} \), we can set up the following ratio:

\[
\frac{2^{17}}{2^{13}}
\]

Using the properties of exponents, specifically that \( \frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n} \), we can simplify the expression:

\[
\frac{2^{17}}{2^{13}} = 2^{17-13} = 2^{4}
\]

Now we calculate \( 2^4 \):

\[
2^4 = 16
\]

Thus, \( 2^{17} \) is \( 16 \) times as many as \( 2^{13} \).

The final answer is:

\[
\boxed{16}
\]
