If you feel the AMD CPU is bottlenecking your GPU you can always overclock. Can't go wrong with the FX 8350. Games are GPU intensive so you want a strong GPU. 1080p gaming will be flawless. The FX 8350 is even Virtual Reality Ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

The 8350 just barely bottlenecks the GTX 1080. The 8350 is running at 4.30GHz in this video Edited July 19, 2016 by HellTigris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

It depends on what chipset you have. My mobo has the Z97 chipset. Plenty fast to last me a couple generations of graphic cards. Like it says in the above video. Only consider your chipset as well. Look at the specs for your mobo. All components should be as current with each other as possible considering your budget.
