Im well aware, just correcting sr4470 value. Thermal Design Power is the maximum amount of power dissipated by the cooling. Other than work done by the fan, all that's left is electrical energy dissipated as heat. Depending on where the set point for the thermal profile is and assuming headroom it could be higher than the actual supply power. For consumed power the number of connectors comes from the PCI-SIG specification.careful, tdp relates to the thermal output of the card, not the required electrical input.
