Considering the cards have their own power supply from the PSU im surprised they have to pull so much from the board.
I wonder if PCI-SIG are taking notice of this and may do something about it?
doubt it.
If they had any clue about how to make a standard we wouldnt have ~8 different power connectors to do one thing: deliver power. Realistically we only need about 3.

My classified just burned my 24-pin connection. Was working fine yesterday. Go to boot up today, no go. Funny thing is, I'm only using a single GTX480. Nothing compared to the power draw that quadfire would pull. Ran fine for months. Then I added a X-FI HD card to my system last week. Maybe that extra 1A was enough to put it over the edge???
In any case, I'm RMAing. Talking to EVGA tech support, I got word that they expect to be releasing a PCI-E card that essentially does what this mod does. Within a month or two they said.

A local PC chain shop here has one that has been on the shelf for years, I took it up to the counter once to check the price on it and it's not even in their system anymore.Originally Posted by SBB
