^ Local pickup is far faster and I could price match to Newegg if it costs less there. I honestly discourage Newegg.ca when I talk to other Canadian shoppers.

I had decided against upgrading before, but with all the reviews and hype it's become too much! My question is would an 8320 be expected to clock higher than an 8350 due to lower stock voltage? I just want to know if an 8350 is worth the extra money.

To be honest, they're pretty much the same chip if AMD is following their usual pattern, kind of like a 1090T to an 1100T. Both SHOULD be able to do the same clocks.
Either way, 4.0-4.2 Turbo I think will overlap the the lines.

I don't think any of us can really know as of right now. I know my 8120 was pretty hot, and I had a hell of a time getting it past 4.2 (infact i'm struggling to get it BACK to 4.2 ghz now
).
I sprung for the 8350 this time just to reduce any doubts I might have about OC'ing headroom.

That depends! If you want to keep it, it'll make for a pretty powerful HTPC or second computer. If you want to sell it, you can probably still get $100.
