Power consumption wise, the Radeon Pro Duo installed into a system consumes 293W of power, compared to 266W with the Fury X and 272W from the GTX 980 Ti. Not too bad at all.

Overall, the Radeon Pro Duo looks like an amazing card - but is it worth $1500? You could buy two single GPU cards and get the same, if not better performance, for less - but AMD isn't aiming this card at consumers. It's a professional card for content creators, and those crazy enough to dump $1500 on a single, dual-GPU video card.
