    5870 already has better performance/watt ratio, even if GTX480 manages to fit into 250W.
    I don't see the issue.

    You've lost me. What exactly do you consider to be "very good performance"? Besides, isn't it easier for a slower card to have better "efficiency" since power consumption doesn't scale linearly with performance on any architecture? That's not saying much.
