The 3,2-GHz core is supported by seven specialized subsidiary processors (the total number of the supported fibers is nine). On theory, the advantage of the chip compare to the competitive decisions allows deformation of the environment in real time, complicated effects, animation of many particles (explosions, smoke, lava, water, haze, glass) and even more perfect AI.
However, the power of Cell is at the expense of its complication, and from now on the programmers will go through a very hard time. Once acquire the use of the parallel algorithms in the application, the PS3 processor will show its true nature.
