    Hi, I've set my eyes on the MSI MS-1651 barebone. Since I'd like to save as much money as possible on the build I would like to know If I'll be able to keep my T7500 or do I have to buy a P series or T9xxx CPU to go with it....

    You can use any of the usual Socket P processor on the MS-1651. That includes the older T7x00 and 800MHz T8x00 and T9x00 processors.
