If you do wind up getting the 8350, I would highly recommend the ASUS sabertooth 990fx board. These chips require good, clean power delivery to maximize performance. And if you aren't familiar with overclocking you should start reading up. There is a lot of extra, free performance on these chips when you have the right components surrounding them.

I have an 8350 on the sabertooth board, 2x8GB g.skill trident at 2400mhz (like stout said you will get better performance and better overclocks by populating only 2 DIMM slots) and a sapphire vapor-x 290. I am a full time graphic designer (photoshop, illustrator, after effects, premiere pro, blender, C4D) so this machine makes my living and I must say it does a pretty awesome job.

There aren't any features on the Sabertooth he won't get on any other 990FX board unless he is water cooling and doing extreme overclocking maybe. It would literally be a waste of money as any 990FX board is going to allow him to do any overclocking he can on air cooling. I have had the Sabertooth and the one I listed in the build. No difference in the two in that regard.

Actually, for the price of the Sabertooth, the ASRock Extreme 9 is the better board for overclocking because it has 12 + 2 power phase design.
