So a couple of us at the bank have done a costing analysis this morning. I won't be able to give exact figures, as if we ever decide to release them publicly it will definitely blow my cover.



All figures in USD.



APU (CPU/GPU) - 85-90

8GB GDDR5 - 110-140

OS Chip (supposedly ARM based) - 12-18

Video encode/decode chip - 8-12

Blu-ray drive - 18-25

Hard drive - 38-50

I/O - 9-12

Wireless chip + antenna - 4

HDMI+HDCP - 11-15

Other - 25-35



Total - 320-401



Accessories:



DS4 - 18-30

PS4 Eye -$12-20

Mono headset - 3

Cabling/misc - 3



Unknown/Alpha:



Internal PSU - 25-55

Cooling - 20-38

Assembly - 13 (Based on being made in China, for made in Japan, make that ~ $45)



Total estimated system cost (no shipping and packaging) - $450-490



These figures are preliminary, and do not include assembly costs, power costs, cooling or shipping as the final design has not been shown and can't be estimated at this time.



Please, please, please remember that this is based on the specification only and cost prices that we know, without a PS4 in the hand there will be mistakes.
