So clearly, either adding 7% more hardware increases power by more than 7%, or there's another variable here.

The GTX480 has 7% more shaders (at 15% higher frequency), 20% more ROPS, 20% wider memory bus and 20% more memory (at 10% higher frequency).
It has more than 7% hardware on the chip/board.
