Default HD 5850 & 5870 Power Consumption

http://www.hardware-infos.com/news.php?news=3193

Idle power draw is much better than existing high-end boards, but max 3D
power draw of the HD 5870 would be 56% more than an HD 4890. Looks like
those 1600 SPs and 80 TMUs aren't free. :-) Compared to a GTX 285 it's more
reasonable.
