Power Consumption of 9700 Pro?

[foxes]

I couldn't find any specs for this anywhere, even on ATI's page. They just recommend to have a 300w power supply, so that doesn't help much.

Does anyone know what amps @ what voltages are used by the 9700 pro? Since it draws power from both the AGP and its dedicated power connect.

Thanks,

Foxes

here's a thread in the rage3d forums on power supplies

The only thing I have seen of this matter was here: www.theinquirer.net/?article=4431 where they wrote "the card will have external power connector since it will need more power than AGP 2.0 can provide. We learned that AGP 2.0 can deliver 40 watts so this card will therefore need more than that."
