Hey really good link, thilan29. Interesting they were able to find out how many watts are pulled through the 12v, pci-e, PEG, 6-pin, 8-pin independently, and compare them to TDP.

Good review.

It's amazing how little power the HD 4670 consumes at idle.

Something is wrong with their 4870X2 numbers; 370 watts is well outside of spec. 8pin (150W) + 6pin (75W) + PCIe slot (75W) is only speced for 300W, they'd be pulling more than 20% over the limit. Even if the hardware can handle it, that's not safe.
