NVidia heating up its engines

NVidia has requested a revision to the PCI-Express standard, in order to be able to add a second power connector on its next-gen cards! Knowing that PCI-Express allows for 75W, that would take the total power supply to 150W!
Imagine the heat such power would produce. In order to accomodate such a card, Apple would have to drastically revise the location of its PCI-Express connector relative to the PCI-X slot, due to the proximity of the CPU's cooling system.
