That's a pretty old platform, but yeah, they should probably work ok together. Any board that supports that CPU should have a PCIe 2.0 slot so that shouldn't be a problem.

You should really look at updating that CPU at least, that Athlon will defiantly hold you back in gaming but yes you can use a 950 GTX to some degree. That is a AM3 CPU so you should have a wide amount of options that should be cheap.
