We consider the different options proposed for the LHC IR upgrade. The two main categories: quadrupoles first (as in the baseline design) and dipoles first have complementary strengths. We analyse the potential of the proposed designs by calculating important performance parameters including luminosity reach, beam-beam resonances and chromaticity contributions. The goal is to enable a decision on the design path based on objective criteria.
