Will the 7900GT use more power than the 7800GT?

or less? because the die is smaller

its probably unknown and will be unknown till the thing coms out. theres no way of knowing for sure untill its been released and tested.

i would say it will because of the big increase in core clock speed alone. however, we cant be sure about that because it always seems that someone has a trick up their sleeve
