    It'll work fine but yes you'll likely see a bottleneck. I had a Q6600 with a GT 220 and it ran great, upgraded to a GTX 460 and the CPU couldnt keep up. Upgraded to an i5-2500k a few months later and my frame rates doubled. If you can overclock the CPU as much as possible to make up the difference.

    Those Q9300's are not going to overclock much with it locked at such a low multiplier, take's a lot of FSB to get anything decent and only a few boards out there are capable pushing it very far.
