At any rate, if this card is based on the GF104 design and not the GF100, it could be a real winner. After all, it was the non-gaming enhancements to the core that made the GF100 so power hungry... After all, what does a gaming gpu need the ability for ECC memory for?

A 512 shader part based on that design should, theoretically, use less power than the 480 shader enabled GTX 480.
Really? Then why do the 68xx series thrash the GTX460 for less power?
