The Cell chip that allows your PS3 to pump out those sweet HD graphics has been used as the basis for a new prototype computer board developed by Sony.
The new 'Cell Computing Board' combines the power of the multi-processor power of the Cell, combined with an RSX graphics processor that makes it even more powerful according to Sony. Exact tech specs are yet to be revealed, but in simple terms this will sit at the heart of some fire-breathing PCs.
The new chip will be unveiled at the SIGGRAPH show in San Diego which starts on August 7, where Sony says it will demonstrate real-time processing of '4k images', which are four times the resolution of HDTV. So that's our shiny new TV made to be out-of-date already. Start saving.

So PS3 is not selling that much or they want to start a 3 way war with AMD and Intel? and how will nVidia, ATI-AMD and most importantly the creator of DirectX and platform for PC gaming OS Microsoft think about this?
