I am worried that the dual gtx 970s are going to be bottlenecked becuase both of them will run at x8, I will be using a overclocked 8350 btw and I will be overclocking both cards
I don't think there's a single-GPU card today that can saturate the PCI Express bandwidth at x8 lanes. That shouldn't be an issue.

The IPC of the FX-8350 may be the real bottleneck. I'm not sure it can be OC'ed high enough to keep from bottlenecking dual GTX 970.
