just by the look of the specs it shouldnt be a problem, but maybe the is a problem with the PCI Express interface, since its still PCI-Express 2. Still, i doubt the rx480 has so much data-throuput  that pci-e is bottlencking it.

could you quote some complains about it ?

using this video as an example

 

GTX1060 is not bottlenecked by the FX8350 and AMD 970 chipset

 

so i dont see why the RX480 will be affected as well

the

Budget? Uses? Currency? Location? Operating System? Peripherals? Monitor? Use PCPartPicker wherever possible.
