We all know that the GeForce GTX 480 is a power hog, but look at the ASUS MARSII! This thing has rows of power phases! Guess it might really need the three 8-pin PCIe power connectors!

Yeah but living out here in CA id have to turn on the AC.
I wonder if they will ever start doing tri gpu boards. Like could they put 3 GF104 chips on an 11inch board. Or even better a value version card, call it Hercules, and have 2 gf104s with 2gb of ram for $450!

I would love the 80-85F weather(according to the Weather Channel) you're having in San Jose right now dude. Try living with 110 heat everyday
