Your CPU might bottleneck you depending on games. Also, I don't think that the case is big enough for this GPU, which is really big. (11" x 5.1" x 2.1")

Wat Will happen with the gpu? Will it not work on its fulltime capacity? Because of the low CPU? I can make it fit in the case i have annother cage inside. What is a good CPU upgrade That fits in my CPU socket so Thatcher graphic card Will runn properly

You are getting a high-end GPU, kind of recent, with an old entry-level CPU. Yes, the GPU won't give its maximum capacity. You will probably need a new CPU+Motherboard combo if you want to fix that.

Your case isn't really a good one for air flow, so it might eventually get to be a problem too, but you can still change your motherboard and CPU. Which will also need you to change your RAM, cause you the old DDR2, and you'll need DDR3.
