I realize you have already gotten the card, but a slightly more futureproof would have a been a 4670 series card. They have the same idle power draw, but when things get loaded up, you have more headroom for a few dollars more.

But you are correct, it is amazing how you can get something that uses HALF the power yet gives you three TIMES the perfomance as a previous generation of graphics cards.
