the Cell processor of the Playstation a performance of 29 FPS

the cell has a similar performance as the CUDA Badaboom encoder in combination with an Nvidia Geforce GTX-285

By comparison, Intel's current top-CPU, the Core i7 965 XE, does it still at 18 FPS

normal desktop CPUs even create only about 5 FPS.

So soon desktop CPUs are better than Cell in task that Cell is made for? Doesn't that make it kind of obsolete?

Try throwing some heavy general purpose stuff at both of them. Well, I guess nobody would want to do that, because it would make Cell look bad... very bad. :D

Obsolete unless it is in the PS4 and Sony pulls a Wii upgrade.
