i made this post after this one https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1597639.0, i didn't see it, but the way it looks you can it comes with one according to the tweet and this post https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1597639.0 , if your asking to save cash. I don't think it gonna be sold with out A PSU but no idea what the price is yet, unless you do some math, then it might be 1000 $ or around there, other wise it's guessing.

The Bitmain guy said 1300$ is "best estimate for now but it might change", i believe. (In the announcement thread) I just wonder how "silent" this really is. After all, "quiet" for them is 80dB, so "silent" could be 60dB

My S7ln set to 475m and 20% fans runs at about 65db. That's only 5db above ambient noise and perfectly quiet to have in my room.

After all, "quiet" for them is 80dB, so "silent" could be 60dB IF that's the price i won't be getting one . i can't afforded it one reason and my other reason and why i never bought a S7 and could have the price is to high,(it's a mortal thing )even if i could afford this, i wouldn't and i would buy one or two more A6 s first, I like them more . I honestly believe Avalon is a better company, so far, there not giving me a lot of shit over getting parts, if I need them . and have sent me some free parts bitmain wouldn't . Your right about the price that's with the PSU, it might cost 1300 . Power supply is extra. Best estimates are $1000 for the miner and $300 for PSU (may change.), so that makes it temping . i have lots of break out boards and PSU's im not using now, it's cheaper for me to order a PSU off ebay for 30 bucks tops with free shipping that will run this with out issue no noise then pay them 300 .

I'm getting a Corsair AX1200i if my Corsair AX860 can't boot this to run it underclocked.
Expensive affair this, 1395$ + 25% VAT + PSU...
But free heat and anonymous FIAT -> BTC exchange makes it worthwhile.
Specially at peak lithography!

Just power one board to start it then underclock it to a suitable freq, power off, plug both boards in and adjust the freq until it runs on your ax860

You may consider putting the same amount of money into a 800W heater and the remaining to purchasing bitcoins.

@gt_addict That's an idea, just noticed the 860 has only 6 ports, the R4 requires 7 and the 1200 has 8... :/ maybe adventure on a splitter for the controller... @tbonetony Too late, also I'm in it for the knowledge. You learn nothing by buying a heater and BTC except how miserable you become when you become rich or lose it all, lose/lose situation right there. @Unacceptable ROI is relative to the future price of BTC if you keep them.

If I could order this with my paypal account using my discover card. the warranty would be extended 1 year to 1 year and 90 days. I need to check this to be sure but I think it is true. My power is not 1 cent even with the solar array. If I had a 15 month warranty and 1 cent power. This makes some sense see below some roi charts 1 cent power 2% diff jumps 1 cent power 3% diff jumps 1 cent power 4% diff jumps

My advice to everybody is to wait a while before buying, in case there are problems with the R4. Given the fact that Bitpain doesnt give a damn about customers and support its a wise thing to just wait. The price might even drop a bit (i hope a lot) which is a good thing.....let them feel the pain instead of us bleeding all the time.
