Granted I realize the draw that the new 400 series cards pull is a sharp increase over the last, but how many of you truly care about the current draw? Are you REALLY complaining about the electricity bill? I bet many of you have several computers with HUGE monitors running all day anyway. A TV in the background that on with Family Guy reruns, a few hotpockets in the microwave next to your power chair with the speakers in them. That dusty old *** ink jet thats in the corner with the huge power inverter still plugged in? I can go on forever with this...
The lights in your house, they are all changed over to halogen right? I mean if you were really concerned about the cost of running these cards then I'm positive there are some simple things you could do to MORE then offset the cost of these cards. Like, close the furnace air vents in rooms not used and close the door.
I know this is a general opinion and does not apply to everyone but I think most of us it really won't make much of a difference. More powah!!
Now that heat issue? That thread is already started.
