That's the other thing...Finch is a novice and just wants a system to play on. I doubt he will be doing much OC'ing anyway and with that in mind at stock the 8350 will be better IMO.
Overclocking is super easy these days. If he's building his own computer he can get into the bios, up the voltage a tiny bit, and try some multiplier overclocking. No harm no foul and free performance. The FX are useless not overclocked IMO.

Using the factory boost overclock is one thing but you act as if going beyond that isn't going to be out of the grasp of some people. It is. Not everyone is going to understand voltage, temps, and testing it all in Prime95.
