Rumors stay rumors. Just measure the power draw on the wall for your XBOX 360 and that's about 160W according to CNET. That's 160W for DX10 GPU, Tri Core CPU, and all other good stuff.jvrobert wrote:You're forgetting that the DX10 cards due out are supposed to be ridiculous power hogs. A single card could conceivably be 200W+ according to the rumors. Pretty pathetic.
400-500W PSU will be way more than enough for high end single CPU gaming systems. And for typical system set up, 300W is enough even for those extreme overclockers.
