Will an FX 8350 @4ghz bottleneck an RX 480?

[MART3R]

Im currently running a GTX 960 OC'd with this CPU and it doesnt look to be getting bottlenecked at all, will it still be the case with an RX480?
Im thinking about upgrading to dual RX 480s because I can get them both for almost the price of one but Im wondering if it's even worth it if my CPU bottlenecks them.
Ive looked at benchmarks and such but Id like to get the opinion of the Tom's Community before I go for it.

That's not a bad CPU. In my opinion you would be fine with one 480 but two might cause some bottleneck issues. Also think about the games you play and if they are CPU or GPU heavy (e.g ArmA)

I hope the almighty one give your PSU enough power to run a 8350 and X-Fire RX 480 on it, damn...

Jokes aside, it's a decent CPU for programs that will utilize all of it's cores, which many games unfortunately won't. Therefore, in more CPU intensive games, it will bottleneck the RX480 no doubt about that, let alone two of them.

I'd recommend anytime a single GTX 1070 against two 480. It will save you a lot of headache from image problems and stuttering.

Not a 1070 with an 8350.

2 480s will be bottlenecked. Not to mention your PSU better be up to the task and your motherboard better be Crossfire capabile.

Then there is the simple fact that not all games are crossfire capabile, so it may not help you much if any at all.

A single 480 is not that big of an upgrade over a 960. If you are going to actually spend money then spend it something that will make a big impact in all aspects like a 1070. With a decent overclock the 8350 should not bottleneck you too badly in GPU intensive games (most cpu intesnive games can actually use more then 4 threads so you are better there).
