wow........computers are gonna cost a lot just to run. ur electric bill is probabally gonna go up if you use about 1kw for just your computer.
 
If it uses a seperate PSU I'm sure it's an external one that you plug into the back of the card (where the VGA/DVI plugs), kind of like the external PSUs on consoles (GC, slimline PS2, and the 360).

If it's not going to be 512-bit it will most likely be 384-bit like the G80.

It would of been way more expensive, if it's going to be 512-bit.
I could have SWORN I read somewhere that it will SUPPORT 512-bit GDDR4 memory, and ATI will use it later after it is released.
 
That is one monster of a card and with that much power and the supposed specs I would expect that card to post benchmark scores that are twice that of anything on the market today..........I cant even imagine using 1250W just to run my PC thats more than everything else in my house running at the same time
