    I have an ASUS M4A89GTD Pro. I am currently running a 1055T on it OC'd to about 3.3

    I was wondering if it would be worthwhile to upgrade to a 1090T so I can have some more overclocking room. I don't plan on upgrading to bulldozer because I don't want to have to upgrade my mobo as well.

    Thanks for any advice!

    Absolutely not worth it. The performance difference is way to low for what you'll have to pay, even when selling you 1055T.

    Just my opinion mind.

    No point. 1055t's should oc to 3.8 fairly easily. 4.0 is doable if you've got good cooling and you're not squimish with the voltage. A 1090t will probably only go to the same.
