If they are indeed doing the external gpu enclosure, you'll be looking at around $350-$400 minimum just for the add on (Depending on the gpu (Most likely a R9 380/x).
They could also just be adding a 4K capable blu ray rom...
Both the PS4 and Xone are failures to me an anyway, from the very start they weren't powerful enough. We're expected to fork over R1000 for a console exclusive but can't expect fluid gaming without frame drops. I played bloodborne (I love this game) but holy crap were the frame drops noticeable. They spoke about 1080P @60fps before the consoles launch but thus far I can't think of a single game that can maintain that. Yes not all games need high fps, most games are fine at lower fps but when a console can't even maintain 30fps [MENTION=428]1080[/MENTION]P I have to question both Sony and Microsoft's thinking when they were designing the new consoles.
