This would be a very nice way of updating my old backup Phenom II based PC, sitting in a cupboard, which currently has an old Radeon 4850 in it.
Knowing that if I my main PC goes down I would at least have a PC with a semi decent GPU in it is very tempting.

So this will be the fastest graphics card without the need for auxiliary power?
I cannot think of another that would be faster?

BLEH!
Either die harvested or massively underclocked!

PCI-Express delivers 75 watts through the slot itself. GTX 950 ref. has a TDP of 90. They will have at least to underclock it slightly.

Wasn't one of the 750 series cards that didn't have a power connector as well?
Its just as well that that this version of the 950 would perform below the standard 950 since its a low powered version of the card which means not as OC capable as the 6 pin powered version.
