    The Title says it all.

    Personally I'm trying to decide between an X8100 from Clevo\Sager or wait and see if Clevo will have a 900F with the new 5870 card. I think I rather have the X8100 with its dual 285's but having a Direct X card is really really tempting especially after seeing that youtube video floating around about the differences between DX 10 and 11. So is anyone else waiting too?

    If you want it for gaming go with x8100 since sli 285m will beat a single 5870 any day.. but if you do light/medium gaming and also do any cpu intensive tasks or if you play mainly cpu dependant games, get the D900F.. and also the looks count i guess.. the x8100 is too flashy for some and the D900F is too plain for others..
