Hope you got a nuclear reactor running in your shed to power those beasties.

Amazing that a single 480 uses more power than 5870 crossfired DAMN

OMG those power curves are sex!!! this will be an ultimate test of best power supplies pardon my obsession of power supplies....

crossfire/sli has different effect versus single card runs...you won't see doubling power consumption..its normal...you'll always see an offset of cpu and other computer parts consumption in most curves...

but damn! 851w..........is that on a gulftown?

As the entire world knows, nVidia unveiled NV100 i.e. "Fermi" architecture on September 30, 2009. As it goes, nVidia's representatives were disclosing to press and analysts that the GeForce parts will see the light of day in November, Quadro to follow in April 2010 and Tesla launching in June, 2010. However, it took almost six months from Jen-Hsun's keynote for the first product to reach our hands, and it will take another two weeks to reach global markets

Single card looks weaker than hell after a sizeable overclock from 700mhz core to 900mhz. SOme say SLI will be the saving grace, I sure hope so.

It may be Kal but multi cards don't do shizzle for us in hwbot. The boints are worthless. Plus for the price, and power...we could run 3 5870's.
