You should be able to no problem, although your motherboard may only support AGP 4x. However, like I said, that doesn't make much difference. The only problem I can forsee is your PSU. Make sure you have a power supply of 300 W or more, or, upon installing your 9800, it make self-destruct, taking the rest of your computer with it.
As to the 1.6 GHz CPU: I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume you've got a P4 1.6A, or the original Northwood. Anyway, it may provide a slight bottleneck in some games, but you can easily counter that by scaling down the physics/world detail settings. All the things that really contribute to the visual aspect of games (i.e. textures, resolution, AA + AF, etc.) are video card-dependent. Get ready to be shocked, after playing on a GeForce 2 MX.
