not much new in rolling out new video cards but will we all have to get 500w psu`s to supply these next gen cards with 2x 12volt supplies to `em ???

nVidia recomends a 480 watt, not a 550. And yes you do have to have 2 molex plugs connect to it. But on the PCI Express version. It will solve the voltage problems so no plugs on the PCI Express version. But this video card kicks @$$ maybe its gonna put nVidia in the lead once again. Even has a programable feature. Very usefull for encoding/decoding.

yes a good 480 and we all know some 550`s arnt as good as a decent 480, but something to note if/when upgrading (especially the molex connections available).
yep PCI Express another mobo upgrade.
