Confirmed: The top end RV630 part does not have a power connector. Meaning it will be safely under 75W. I cannot wait.

your 9800Pro is using AGP, which is able to supply about 50W only. Even the graphic card runs at 55W it still require an external power connector.

At the top of the DirectX 10 chain, is the ATI Radeon HD 2900 XT. The AMD ATI Radeon HD 2900-series features 320 stream processors, over twice as many as NVIDIA's GeForce 8800 GTX. AMD couples the 320 stream processors with a 512-bit memory interface with eight channels. CrossFire support is now natively supported by the AMD ATI Radeon HD 2900-series; the external CrossFire dongle is a thing of the past.

The R600-based ATI Radeon HD 2900-series products also support 128-bit HDR rendering. AMD has also upped the ante on anti-aliasing support. The ATI Radeon HD 2900-series supports up to 24x anti-aliasing. NVIDIA's GeForce 8800-series only supports up to 16x anti-aliasing. AMD's ATI Radeon HD 2900-series also possesses physics processing.

New to the ATI Radeon HD 2900-series are integrated HDMI output capabilities with 5.1 surround sound.

I don't know about the benchmark figures and all that, but that picture is legit.

wowowowoweeee omgohzorz haxorz.

Finally, them power hungry wh*re are joining the nunnery.

I was getting worried that I might need to dangle molex connectors all over these new cards like it's somekind of eight legged spider.

hope Nvidia will do the same.

I knew there has got to be a better solution, they are just not looking hard enough for it, simply adding the jiggawatts and hulking the size of the GC is not the solution.

In the future, I would like to see USB Graphic card the shape/size of a pendrive. So we can dangle our 999999gtx around our neck at LAN party and pimp them with LED and laser etching. For cooling, we simply put them inside a water cooled copper cube box, with the USB connector end sticking out. So your rig's front panel will have a fist sized copper cube attached, complete with external water pump. You can pimp the copper cube to any shape you want, micky mouse, shape of a women, dildo, etc. Just dont touch it, coz it's hot.

Oh, Look at my usb 99999gtx thumb SLI, around my gold necklace, next to my brass knuckle .... and KEEP YOUR HANDS OFF MY GIRL!!!
