Min 42A; wow. That's not good for my 18A per rail.
Good thing I won't be able to afford it.

I just bought this:

And its only 38A per 12V rail so does that mean I am SOL as well?

600W???? What the hell is that!!!! you will need a fking 1000W MINIMUM to run this on a decent system. If that is true then I will not buy Nvidia card for the enxt years for sure.

If you ask me, those requirements are utter crap. No way it would need to draw that much power. Even if the power draw is high, I cannot believe we will need a 800W+ power supply to run it. Don't put any real weight on this one guys.

What they said is 600 W for the whole system, add another 250 W for SLI. The killer is mostly the Amp data.

Also, I forgot the most important about 1500 Mb DDR5 RAM.

Thnaks for the picture post :)

Guys, tests like this when they have power Requirements mean System Load, not Card only.

I.E - Card Tested on a System with an i7 965 EE + 6 GB RAM + ect ect.

Same Power Requirement method they have used in the past.

OK, seeing that side shot is much more realistic. If we were forced to run anything over a good 600W for the system and 1 card then I would get upset. Otherwise, still not much to see here that is not already general knowledge.

Finally they add more ram as we desperatly need more for high end. Crysis can use over a GB of VRAM.

The power requirement are pretty reasonable as anyone buying this card is most likely gonna have more than 600 watts already. Now just need a price and give sky one to test and we will be happy.
