It will support the GPU, but that CPU is really very old, so depending on the workload it may bottleneck.

Keep in mind that bottleneck doesn't mean bad performance. Gaming is much more GPU-based than CPU (although obviously you need both) and assuming you're upgrading from a much older GPU, you should still be getting a huge uplift in performance.

If the gpu is putting out alot of frames it can actually hurt the cpu performance causing stuttering and lockup, you will have to most likely lock your fps at 60 (if it reaches that with a 1650 depending on settings) 

CPU: i5-4690k @ 4.4 GHz | RAM: 12GB DDR3 1333MHz | GPU: Sapphire Pulse RX 580 4GB

Yes, or just turn up graphical details to make the GPU work harder lol
