1000W PSU for the last PMG5 Quad 2,5 GHz

The first PMG5 Quad 2.5 GHz will not arrive before couples of weeks but Apple has already published online some information related to the new PMG5 high-end model
The Quadro FX 4500 requires more power than delivered via the PCI express slot, so a cable plugged between the graphic card and the motherboard will provide the remaining power necessary.
So at the end, to feed 4 G5 processors and 1 power-consuming graphic card, the PMG5 comes with a massive PSU able to deliver 1kW! quite a record.
For recent Apple's hardware, processors are under voltage even when the computer is turned-off.
