It is now can't speak for the future... no one really know that DX10 games will require in terms of hardware as none exist. If you can afford the more expensive version I'd go for that as it will last you longer.
SATA HD have a new power connector on them, however most if not all SATA drives I've seen also have a molex connector. I know my two drives do, but I still use the SATA power connector.
These cards all fall within the ATX standard, sadly it is often the case manufacturers who fail to adhere to the specification. The GF4x00 were really long cards 9" at least, when I upgraded to my 6600GT I was shocked how much smaller it was.
