Depending on arm length, you arent supposed to touch the chest with the bar. It over extends the back and shoulders. Any personal trainer will tell you that.
I'm 6'4" and go down to my chest. How low should I go if not to my chest?

Your arms shouldn't break 90 degrees in the lowered position. If you have a really big chest the bar could touch because of body shape. I have a decent sized chest for my body size and the bar doesn't touch my chest doing bench. My friend is a bigger guy and the bar touches his chest when he does bench.
