500 Watts? you got to be kidding me, that's crazy
"Then we have SDV or Software Development Vehicles which are also prototypes, but I would say much closer to the final mainstream product. These appear to use standard PCIe although it is not clear how Intel plans to manage that considering they are still drawing 500W from the wall. Maybe Intel plans to augment its GPUs in a separate enclosure or through some auxiliary PSU. The fact that there is a PCIe expansion box present in the table and the SDV all list "new design" seems to lend credence to this theory. The 500W variant also pulls 48V in total. This is absolutely insane as far as DC goes. To put this into context, most computer Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) units usually use a 48V input (and can output over 2000W of power).
If Intel succeeds in this absolutely crazy plan, things are going to get very very exciting for gamers in 2021. MCM is the future of computing as AMD has already proved and looks like Intel might actually beat them to the punch."
