Hey guys, heads up, I got a preview look at Charlie Demerjian's next article:

Instead of any sort of responsible or daresay competent target power envelope for their last desperate effort in the highend market, NVIDIA has decided to abandon any restraint in gluttony for a staggering 400W consumption level just for the card alone, putting even entire desktop machines to shame.
The same source also revealed a few tidbits of the performance characteristics we might expect from such a ghastly beast, and despite high expectations for hardware that could bring an industrial-strength power generator to its knees, reality bites back to paint quite a different picture. Information reveals performance should be around 10% less than current-gen GTX 295 overall, despite completely broken and unusable driver suites powering the bloated predecessor. It should then come as no surprise that NVIDIA has not only lost the consumer-confidence crown as we've become accustomed to, but also the sheer performance race that it seems they alone care about these days. NVIDIA has truly become worthless even by their own standards. Perhaps they should have just renamed their old parts instead, since that seems to be one thing they're good at.
In other news, NVIDIA sucks, I hate them and they are big fat doodoo heads.
