Has onboard wi-fi and is a completely package overall. Remember to get 2400MHz RAM for your APU

RIG: I7-4790k @ 4.5GHz | MSI Z97S SLI Plus | 12GB Geil Dragon RAM 1333MHz | Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX 970 (1550MHz core/7800MHz memory) @ +18mV(Maxed out at 1650/7800 so far) | Corsair RM750 | Samsung 840 EVO 120GB, 1TB Seagate Barracuda | Fractal Design Arc Midi R2 (Closed) | Sound Blaster Z                                                                                                                        Getting: Noctua NH-D15 | Possible 250GB Samsung 850 Evo                                                                                        Need a console killer that actually shits on every console? Here you go (No MIR/Promo)

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861

The MSI board would be a great choice, and anything with FM2+ should support it. 

However, if you're getting the 7850k and  you have the option to get a dedicated GPU with it, i'd suggest you get the Athlon 860K and a dedicated GPU - even the R7 250 performs better when paired with the 860K, and costs about the same (though the recent price drop in the 7850K might have changed that). However, you won't be getting HSA, which is only really important if you use tasks that utlilize it.

I would sooner recommend getting the Athlon X4 860K with either an R9 270 or 750Ti. HEAPS better performance than the 7850k alone

I was saying get an R7 250 if he only had the budget for a 7850K - they're about the same price. 

The 750Ti and R9 270 would give you much better performnace, but at a higher cost, too.

Relatively low cost for the performance gained

Yeah, but some people have strict budgets. I was merely pointing out an option within the budget his build would be built in.
