Yes, that CPU is going to bottleneck any high-end, including the RX 570. But this will also depend on the type of game being played. Some games are more CPU-bound. Do you have a compatible PSU for this upgrade as well ?

What's your current Video card in this system ?? https://www.gpucheck.com/gpu/amd-radeon-rx-570/intel-core-i3-4150-3-50ghz/

It doesn't matter if your PC is 4 years old, even I'm using the same chipset, and my current i7 4790 K CPU doesn't bottleneck the RX 480. Your dual core CPU is kind of weak though.
