880. I don't like the 3120, I have seen too many top end problems. Husqvarna makes several excellent machines but this is not one of them.
 
If I had the choice I would take a new 088 or a 880 just because of the 12000 rpm limiter in the 880.
 
It all depends on weather your going to race it or work it. If your racing it, 3120 Husky:buttkick:

What is your opinion of them? You have both which do you like and why?

I have never used the 3120 but have used the 088 and 084 set up with a 6' bar and they both rip wood with ease. Personal I like the 084 better with the manual oiler.

I've got an 088, love it, and been deep inside it (not my fault :) ). Everything is see inside I like...
That could be interpreted several different ways, and at least a couple of them are rather disgusting! :eek:
