Is this system balanced and able to run the best games?

CPU: AMD FX 6300 Black Edition


CPU Cooler: Zalman CNPS5X Performa


Operating System: Windows 8.1 (64-bit)


Motherboard: Gigabyte 970A-DS3P


RAM: 8GB DDR3 1333mhz (1x8GB)


Hard Drive: 1TB S-ATAIII 6.0Gb/s


Graphics card: AMD Radeon R9 270X 2GB


Case: Zalman Z3 Plus


PSU: 550W Corsair VS
 
Solution
Yes, it is fairly balanced, and yes it will run current games. I'd get a 2x4GB RAM kit though to run in dual-channel mode, it will be a little faster.

gtx 760 doesnt cost less than r9 270x I thought and how much of a noticable difference does 2x4 make compared to 1x8?
