Well, Cex in my opinion is basic CFW. Cex is for general stuff play backup games. And Dex is more stable than Cex, Dex is debug, that has debug settings. And cex doesn't have debug settings. If you want to use mod menus for COD games I suggest going to Rebug DEX, the menus won't be laggy as being on Cex. Also, Dex has better feeling of being on a CFW. And Dex is way better than being on Cex. Being on Rebug you can just switch back to CEX whenever you want to. 
Is cex still a retail console i dont understand

if you clicked the first link in the google search and took the time to read the first couple sentences you would have that answer

if you have no interest to read anything, stay on the 360 and don't bother with PS3

From NGU :woot:
OFW= Official Firmware / (DEX + CEX)

This is the firmware that Sony releases and is what you update to when you connect through the internet to update. It has no debugging options and does not allow homebrew to run.

DFW= Demonstration Firmware / (SEX)
This a firmware that you find on PS3s in stores that allow only for games/demos/videos to be run. It requires a 4 digit pin number to "unlock" the majority of its features but will never have all the settings unlocked for the user.

MFW= Modified Firmware(aka Kiosk Firmware) / (SEX + CEX)
This firmware is a modified version to act like a retail firmware with debug options. All it adds is XMB options like "Install Package Files" but does not allow the install nor running of homebrew apps. It is utterly useless, do NOT install this on your PS3s.

CFW= Custom Firmware / (CEX + DEX)
This is a modified retail firmware that does have debug options added to it and allows the installation plus the running of homebrew on the system.


So now that you know the different versions of firmwares, what the hell do the CEX, DEX, and SEX mean?! Well it's very simple.

CEX= Consumer Version
This simply means it is installed on the retail consoles that you bought at the store. It is what approx. 98% of consoles are.

DEX= Debug Version
This is the version that is installed on debugging,/developer/testing PS3s that game/software developers get so they can make programs and patches for their products. It allows for Real Time Memory Editing and more debugging options like dual internet settings and HDD read speeds.

SEX= Shop Version
Now that you are done giggling, this is the version that can be found in stores and is accompanied by kiosk/demonstration firmwares. It is what is found in the stores or shops.

Actually i do have one more question do i have to use e3 flasher or can i download ofw 3.55 to downgrade and then install a cfw on 3.55 and spoof to 4.75
If you don't have a PS3 on 3.55 then you going need to use E3 flasher to downgrade but that if your PS3 can be downgraded. But if you have a PS3 on 3.55 OFW then you can install whatever CFW you want. You only need to spoof if CFW isn't update to the latest firmware.
