According to dbus.conf and gdm.conf they both start at roughly the same time if no remote filesystems are to be mounted.
Sometimes dbus is fast enough and sets itself up before gdm, sometimes gdm is faster. When gdm starts and dbus is not yet ready, it just bails out (see gdm-2.29.4/daemon/main.c).
