Radeon 9700 power consumption question

[Rhonda85]

I need to know how much wattage a 9700 consumes. If possible, how much 3.3v, 5v and 12v does it draw. It must be a lot since it has an external power input. Are there any good websites that list how much current video cards draw?

Thanks

Its not necessarly a lot. Its just guarenteed to be over 45w

It only uses a 4 pin floppy power connector vice the 4-pin molex connector. Not sure of the exact power usage, but it's not much. What PSU are you planning on using?

Should be pretty close the the power consumption of a 9800 Pro.
