DMI3 bottleneck? (g4500+h110)

hey there, 
I checked specs of g4500 which shows DMI3 8GT/s and the chipset h110 shows 5GT/s DMI2 

Dose this bottleneck the cpu with the motherboard in any way?
I would like to know :)

It means the bandwidth between the cpu and the chipset is smaller. 

DMI 3 8 GT/s is about as much bandwidth as a pci-e x4 slot, or about 4 GB/s .. so 5GT/s is less than that. 

 

Everything that's connected to the chipset (sata controller , usb controllers, network card, sound card) all talk to the CPU using that 4GB/s or less connection.

 

Example of boards and how they'd connect peripherals to chipset:
