Usage: The safety guide, not the press release, is where Sony states a console's electrical rating. Sony's launch announcements describe the PlayStation 4 by architecture and core count and give no wattage at all; this document gives one, and it is model-coded, so the figure belongs to the CUH-1001A chassis and not to later revisions.
