i'm just thinking is the 4gb of ram worth it, will many games actually use it, they could have went with a much better gpu instead of the 4gb but as some one said i guess it was too late, here is the price estamation for ps4 parts from beyond3d.
PU (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
