Has a hard time competing with the 4core 8 thread chips at similar clock speeds. It does however show large gains over the Phenom 4 core chips. I can't believe the pricing though for 6 cores at 300 bucks is amazing.

 

Against the 860 nope I dont think its worth the money since you are running 8 threads verses 6 in programs that support multiple threads.

how would you rate this compared to a 750 or 860?

is the extra 100$ totally worth spending for 2 more cores?

IMO its a tough call. The biggest issue we have right now is nothing really uses all the cores yet. For future proofing its a good idea but performance wise I dunno I am kinda leaning towards some of the quads but thats me :)

there's my 920 @ 4Ghz, the 1090T scores 5.2 stock & 6.2 @ 4.1Ghz

 

just for comparison (since the review only had a 920 @ stock clocks)
