Listen "starhawk"
You need to go and pick up some new issues with cable in them, like for example Cable/Deadpool. Where Cable uses his powers to make every person in the world imagine how his version of paradise would feel like. Where he extracts a virus from someone's body, molecule by molecule. Where he takes a house a part without even focusing, bolt by fricking bolt.
Cable's gaining full access to his powers, which means that he's as strong as X-man, only he has much better control and much more finesse. People with incredible Telekinesis can keep their body alive somehow, even when it's completely messed up. Yes, like Swan did after Deadpool and Agent X shot him several times and did a little stabbing.
Magneto ripping Apocalypse apart was PIS, because it completely overruled and ignored all of Apocalypse's powers. Like control over his body at a molecular level. Maybe you need to read up on Apocalypse as well?
Cable also was able to kill Apocalypse, by using his Psimitar to disrupt and destroy Apocalypse's spiritual Form. Though he was later on able to reconstruct himself due to the T-O virus, which Cable was responsible for.
While fighting the Silver Surfer and crushing his shield, he was also mind linked with the entire world's population and holding up and entire space station. Yes, it happened, please go look it up. So yes, Cable has some pretty amazing feats and yes, he will defeat Magneto easily.
