Turns out the extra chip is:
"NV10-- independent RAMDAC chip with integrated TMDS"

ahhh still a little confused my PSU has 4 12+ 18A rails... Does that mean the 30A on the GTX is split between the two PCI-E connectors 18A+ 18A, or do they mean 60A for one GTX because the GTS requires 26A... Ahhh

damnit my psu is 50W short.... It silverstone, plus conroe so I may be able to get by with 850W instead of 900W for SLI

If these are the same 30A figures that were being talked about before then it means 30A are required for the whole system, not just the video card. And yes, whatever load of that is for the video card will be split over the 2 connectors no doubt.
