Exactly. Both the 8800 GT and the HD 3870 were kings because of low TDP. Yeah both were hot with reference cooling, but Accelero S1 made beast of them. Accelero was able to handle 8800 GTS 512 MB, but since than the cards have much smaller VRM's. You won't be able to cool it.
I see no chance of this card being another 8800 GT. Maybe in terms of low amount of cards in shops. Yeah it could help in pushing prices down, but as long as AMD has huge space where the prices can go, NVIDIA won't sell much of these cards even if they were as powerfull as HD 5850.
