^^precisely why i opened this thread.. another conundrum!!! two for 1100t and one for 8120.. the graphs above were the reason for my confusion.. please clear the confusion up:)

None of those benchmarks were for a 8120, but ALL were for a 8150. IMO, the 1100T would defeat an FX-8120 in most Benches, stock, of course.

my motherboard has an 8+1 heatsinked vrm setup.. so i can take the 1100 for a cross country sprint if necessary:) my local dealer as of now has a special offer on the 1090t.. will that suffice?

the 8120 is just a lower clocked 8150.. i just have to raise multiplier to transform it as a 8150. thats why the graphs are quite relevant

would a i7 860+ p55 pro combo be
better than this? the hex core+
