Then why did the PS3 use a GPU and CPU that were not the best available?

 

In mid 2006?

What graphics card was more advanced than the RSX? Also there is yet to be a stronger processing behemoth such as the CELL today.

 

First off, the Geforce 7800GTX has demonstrated performance that is higher than the RSX and was released in late 2005/early 2006 ... Beyond that the Cell is a gimmicky processor which has yet to demonstrate performance above what was available from Athlon X2 in the 4000+ range were able to do; please do not make the (moronic) assumption that it is similar in performance to a Core 2 Duo (Core 2 Quad) or any of the Power6 processors.
