games use just 10% of ps3's power + CELL benchmarks

The previous generation systems I own are a Dreamcast, PS2 and Gamecube; I also own a Wii and have a gaming PC. Also, I think it is important for you to use your "Big-Boy" words and actually write english. Edit Below: It's also obvious that you don't understand what the benchmarks were saying ... The benchmarks were of a Fast Fourier Transform, something which has no use in-game. The reality is that a FFT can be run far faster on a modern GPU than on an x86 CPU, but (in general) for most processing needs an x86 based processor will destroy your GPU.

FFT, TRE, CRYPTOGRAPHY STENCIL ,LINEAR MULTIPLICATIONS, RAYCASTING , RAYTRACING are heavy computational tasks..................................If cell could excel there then how would it perform in low computational tasks like AI, GI, HDR.
