Well not really. There is no more power going to anything than before from what I can tell. It would be nice if Apple would describe the system a little better. That fan that blows on the radiator is going to have to run at a pretty high RPM to cool both G5 at once.

The way they depict the system it looks like they could cut down on 1 fan by doing this. The gains from that would probably be lost at spinning the other fan at higher RPM.

Keep in mind I could just be talking out of my ass, All I am going on is that little cartoon image. If anyone finds any good information let me know.
