wondering if a x4 would be much of a graphics limiter cause my board does 8x 4x, instead of 8x 8x i was wondering if i get a second rx 480 if that would limit me much

4x works fine for crossfire with an extremely small performance penalty compared to 8x/16x that it is not even worth worrying about. As long as your board supports crossfire I would just enjoy a second card or wait tell vega launches if you don't want to deal with the short comings of multi-GPU.
