if want to see no bottleneck you must get an i7
but with fx 8350 you can reach above 60fps in all games

To be honest with a 970/980 SLI setup you should go for an Intel build instead (I'm not even a fanboy). I think even the FX9590 will struggle to get the maximum perfomance out of two 980 cards.

caution.. only a handful of 990fx chipset mobo can support such cpu.!! i wouldnt suggest such upgrade anyway.! overclock your fx 8350 and you will almost get the same results.! what mobo do you have and cpu cooler?

You can overclock your 8350 to 9370 levels if your power supply and motherboard can take it. Even an OC to 4.5ghz is quite doable.

If that's not enough, go intel.

An i7 is nice, but only the top end ones, an FX-9590 properly set up with decent cooling is more than adequate.
