This confuses me. My GTX uses 2 6-pin connector and 2 2pin connectors where it doesn't plug to anything. Why are they saying GTX uses 8-pin?
Where'd you see that? They're just speculating that the new future 9800 (nvidia) cards will be up to 2.0 specs and thus draw I think like up to 300W. (something insane)

Yup, just the 2900XT and (XTX -> xt-1gb)
