    What about power usage under full load? That's the figure I'd like to see.
    As quoted by LowRun......"So, we are one week past AMD's worst case scenario for BD's availability but they don't feel like communicating about the delay, I suppose AMD must be removed from the reliable sources list for AMD's products launch dates"

    since it has 2x6pin we know its less than 225 and should be more than or close to 150

    I could live with that. Probably make a good folding card then.

    A bit disappointing if you look at it from this perspective, its TDP or power consumption is probably around GTX 285 levels and it should perform around the same too at roughly the same cost, the only big bonus is the DX11 support. But this time around it's more ATI's doing very well IMO if you only compare NVIDIA's Fermi line vs their previous series and the same for ATI. GTX 460 is a midrange card and in the past often the midrange card performed around the same levels as previous topend card and did very well still. This time it would have to be around HD 5850 levels in performance for it to be successful but it doesn't quite look like it. Looks like no huge price cuts are in sight in near future yet... crazy when you think for how long the HD 5850 and 5870 have been sold now for even above launch price!

    I think GTX 470 is the only Fermi card that makes some sense taking into account all factors (performance, price, overclockability, power consumption etc).
