    the HD 4850 is listed with max draw of 114W...didnt the 7900gt had around the same power draw?
    im not sure which other card to compare to it when it comes to power consumption,from the "middle enthusiast segment" or whatever they call the 150$ to 300$ range...

    "Generally speaking, CMOS power consumption is the result of charging and discharging gate capacitors. The charge required to fully charge the gate grows with the voltage; charge times frequency is current. Voltage times current is power. So, as you raise the voltage, the current consumption grows linearly, and the power consumption quadratically, at a fixed frequency. Once you reach the frequency limit of the chip without raising the voltage, further frequency increases are normally proportional to voltage. In other words, once you have to start raising the voltage, power consumption tends to rise with the cube of frequency."

    8800gt and hd3870 are around that power consumption too
    Are we there yet?

    250 Euro for 4870? 175 Euro is much higher price than the first predicted ~230$, but to be honest the card worths every cent .

    This looks more promising and the "prediction" of ~230$ is right.

    Starting as low as 155€ here and in stock, given the pricing track record of that shop i'm expecting you'd be able to find some in the 140€ range in a few days.
