Word is
out on the street that the upcoming ATI RV670 GPU will have a thermal design power of 135W:
R600 has 240W TDP which makes RV670 almost twice better than its previous brother.
The actual power usage of RV670 is just above 100W and this means that there should be a chance that it can work without a power connector at least in PCIe 2.0 motherboard.
Last time we heard about the Gladiator our sources claimed the performance close to R600 for the mainstream price. We will continue watching this space.
