PCIe 2.0 Crossfire Bottleneck?

I'm planning to get an R9 390, and from what I've read thus far is that putting PCIe 3.0 cards into 2.0 slots shouldn't hurt performance, but I was wondering if the same would apply to a 2-way CrossfireX setup. If I had two R9 390s in Crossfire would they lose performance from being in 2.0 x8?
