Totally depends on how you work out, your habbits, and the person doing the working.

When i used to lift semi-often, i was going 5 days a week for about an hour a day. Lifting that frequently i gained quite a bit fo strength. I didn't spend my time too well and didn't work all that hard, but in about 7 months i had increased my bench 75lbs, squatting 100 more, etc. I was much stronger than i started. Over the course of this period though, i only gained about 10lbs, maybe 15. Most of this was from growing a few inches. I was 120 going into it, came out 135 or so. Again, i am pretty skinny so i didn't have much weight to lose, thus the little increase in weight. I grew very little more muscle mass, and i got more toned. But i got much stronger. I knew several other people would had similar gains and had a rather noticable increase in body size.

It depends on what kind of person you are and what you consider "buff". You can gain strength and not much bulk, and you can also gain a lot of bulk, but not all that much strength. It depends on how you work out and what you want to accomplish.
