My current pc is in my sig. I was thinking about possibly buying a GTX 460 1gb as my main card, and making my GTX 260 (192) the Physx card. If I do this, with both cards installed in my pc, when I am not running a game, how much power would the GTX 260 be using when just sitting there idle doing nothing?

Are we talking about 20w for the GTX 260 to sit there when it is doing nothing? Or are we talking 100w?
 
I believe it's around 25W at idle for a stock 260.

Your really worried about power consumption? Seriously?

Yes, I have seen my electric bill after a crazy month of Folding and other stuff and I don't want to ever have one like that again.
