Will an A8-7650k bottleneck an RX 480 badly in Battlefield 1? Will the RX 480 improve framerate from an R7 360?

Hi,
Now I was considering getting Battlefield 1 and playing with a friend of mine on it. Now, I recently purchased an RX 480 (as an upgrade from an R7 360) in preparation for getting a CPU like an i5-7500 but for the time being I am stuck with an AMD A8-7650k. I have a couple questions:

- Will an AMD A8-7650k bottleneck the RX 480 extremely in Battlefield 1?
- Is Battlefield 1 a CPU intensive game?
- Will the RX 480 improve framerate from an R7 360?

Thanks very much for any answers.

BF1 is very CPU intensive so you'll bottleneck quite a bit. Although you should see improvements in framerates anyway, your RX 480's utilisation will just be very low at times.

Don't expect to play BF1 multiplayer in higher than 40 fps.
