That card is way too strong for the 2600. There will be some amount of limitation on some games. Explained over here...

"I would have no problems with pairing that graphics card with that CPU " A slight bottleneck will still outperform a lower tier GPU, and will result in overall better performance. So for the same price it's definitely worth.

Read the whole thread, everyone is saying it is fine, especially if you run at a higher resolution.

It will only perform as good as the strongest card the cpu can support without limiting its potential. In short you are paying way more on a card, than the performance you can get proportionately.

Where is everyone???
