    I'm deciding to purchase the d900c with sli 1024mb 7950GTX or m570ru with 512mb 8700GTX. The d900c does not have a santa rosa chip compared to m570ru. Which do you guys think is the better choice?

    a 7960GTX SLI is leaps and bounds better than a 8700GTX or a 8700GTX SLI for that matter.

    The D900c has a desktop conroe chip, which is faster than the Santa Rosa merom chips. And even a single 7950GTX will be faster than a 8700GT, so there's no comparison there.
