    Thats pretty awesome. If I ever randomly feel like it I will install some in my PC but its not an absolute must have for me.

    Cool, but not worth the price.

    Would be nice to see something like this used in reviews, though I don't think I'd ever bother with one in my own computer.

    Does the GPU one do any sort of calculations regarding the up to 75W that can be drawn directly through the PCI-E connector, or is modern GPU design such that all power for the GPU is now drawn through the additional cables?

    And how about the 24 pin ATX connector? Does none of that go to the CPU or the GPU through the mobo?

    I think that power consumption is the last thing on an overclocker's mind. :)

    I got a Pair (GPU+CPU) for Christmas but now I need another GPU one as the 6950 has dual power lines :(
