I do not have the consumption ratingsat hand but this information "that the tests done were only with the gpu at idle, and not full" is incorrect.

Most GPU tests I have seen provided information on power consumption at idle, middle and full usage so you should be able to find the numbers you need.

Somebody raised the same question like you in this forum:

Anyway, this will solve all your questions:

I think you will probably not. For the low resolution you have, at the current state of the game (beta patch) I would hold on my money and wait for the next generation of NV cards.

Thanks for the info and help. yes, I was also thinking just to wait, I'm trying to see whats new on the lineup for the future, Im sure something is....only problem is, when something is the newest, its very expensive, and when the new gen's come out, the 570's will drop fairly quickly I imagine, which would make having two of the cheaper Im thinking..but, one never knows. thanks!
