Consoles have highly customised designs with extreme optimization.

Not anymore they don't. They use PC derived hardware with maybe a couple of extra tricks sprinkled on.

You cannot buy an APU with the PS4 CPU + PS4 GPU. 

Just because the different chips on the APU die are derived from chips sold on discrete desktop hardware, doesn't mean it isn't highly customized and extremely optimized.

The mere reality of the APU design in the PS4 makes it able to be optimized way more than most other computer hardware out there. The unified memory is an example.
