    DrLiam Loving that company's name. :P
    Anyways, the specifications are looking solid for NVIDIA's new card.

    I have a 600w PSU but it only has 20A on two +12V rails.

    Sledgehammer70 current GTX 295's require 680Watt and 48a so yes this card is a power hungry beast. And Kossi you would have 40a on that PSU.

    mirage I hope it will have a dynamic core switching method to turn off part of the cores when they are not used/necessary. If I am not wrong, there should be 512 CUDA cores. The driver could adjust the number of active cores according to defined fps threshold value as required.

Howdy, Stranger!
