Although it was expected within two weeks, some information about the forthcoming GTS 450 has already begun to leak.A site published a test video (since removed) of a model of the card from Asus. From the review, we can see that this card is very similar in terms of the size to the GTX460, but it only requires a single PCIe power connector. Power consumption should be reasonable as a result.
The GPU has 192 stream processors and a 128-bit memory bus. Asus have overclocked their model to run at 925MHz, which if the same as the rest of the Fermi range would suggest shaders clocked at 1850MHz.
Performance in Folding@Home should be decent, probably similar to a 9800GTX+ overclocked to 1840MHz or a GTX260 at 1242MHz.
