To me it sounds like they went with a bad idea and are trying to sell it.
Cards use a lot more power than latest ati cards but the difference in performance isn't that big, not pleased, I was going to think about getting one for me and putting my card in gf's pc but i'll stick with one card.
If you didn't have the same problem with the HD4000 cards then you have no room to talk, simple as that.
