Using ddr4 in ATI's dx10 series cards Question

[illuminatirex]

HI, will the use of ddr4 in the new dx10 series cards by ati reduce the card retail price cost? ( i heard that ddr4 will be cheaper, tha ddr3's)


btw will the R600 cards sue much more power compared to teh 1900xt(the 1900xt uses 120W max if im not mistaken)
thx
