GeForce 9900 GTX & GTS Slated For July Launch

[trinibwoy]

Total board power is 236watt, 150watt is probably the GPU alone.

236 has to be a peak number. The numbers in the slide are measured. The 45w for the 9800GTX is for the entire board. So it's safe to assume that the 150w on the GTX280 is for the entire board as well.

The dual-PCB 9800GX2 pulls only 180w. I don't know why there's so much misinformation and misunderstanding about power consumption. It's like some great conspiracy to sell expensive PSU's or something.
