For christmas I'm planning to get my dad a new motherboard to get him started on his new build. He is a long time Asus and AMD fan. I'm split on whether I should go to FM2+ or AM3+. It's really mostly a looks and sort of a performance thing. My dad wants to do an ROG red and black themed custom loop but the Crosshair is red black and white. He would most likely prefer the looks of the Crossblade better but I'm not sure if it's worth the tradeoff of the extra modules.
He probably won't notice the difference between a 7850K and an 8350 since he'll overclock either of them to hell anyway and he doesn't game at all. He's just building it because he can and he wants something to toy around with.
