Default HD4650 AGP Uses Less Power Than PCIe Version

Tom's Hardware compares the HD4650 AGP against an identically clocked HD4650
PCIe on an ASRock mobo with both AGP and PCIe slots. Under load, the AGP
card with twice the RAM and the bridge chip somehow drew 7W *less*. Wonder
if Gigabyte designed the power regulation circuitry on the AGP card more
efficiently than the ATi reference card?
