The 875 is a great value (though one has to consider mobo, ram, etc if you don't already own a LGA1155). But I found the review very intel oriented. Something as simple as the 1090T and 875 sharing the same score but the 875 has an ever so small but noticeable longer bar in the graph and lighter colour making it seem as though it performed better. Ppl may not take that on, but subtle things like that are marketing tools to make a product seem better than it actually is. That being said I can buy a 1090T and drop it in my DDR2 mobo so from an upgrade perspective that CAN'T be beat. If you're building a NEW system and have a decent budget, you can't go wrong with the 875.
