I agree that it is becoming increasingly hard for both ATI and Nvidia to keep their dual GPU solutions within 300W. That doesn't necessarily mean that they won't make a >300W 5990 if NV threatens their market position with Fermi.

32nm is too far off.

Instead of responding with sarcasm you could simply propose and argue for a more likely scenario.
