It doesnt run louder, it doesnt run hotter, it does eat more juice but there isn't a stardard and it's like you'll have go out and get a 1KW PSU. I owned a 8800GTS 640MB and although it gave more fps according the game benches (i.e. FEAR) the game ran just as smooth with the HD2900XT and I couldn't tell the difference or even feel the HD2900XT slower. And if you like to 3DMark benching, the 8800GTS 640MB can't touch the HD2900XT.
Wouldn't it be better have higher FPS in games than get higher benchmark scores in 3dmark?
