Will this 7950 bottleneck?

Would an ASUS 7950 DIRECT CU II, bottleneck if I am running an AMD ATHLON II X3 OC'd to 3.4GHZ with watercooling?

My knowledge of AMD CPUs is low but I'd say a bottleneck would occur even if not noticeable

Forgot to mention it is an Athlon 450

most of the time, yes. Though older games and less demanding new ones will still run fine, even with the bottleneck.
