Is a GTX 560 OC compatible with this system?

[goaskalice00]

Hey all,

I just purchased a Gigabyte GTX 560 OC. I'm planning on building a computer in a few weeks, and I wonder if the other parts I plan to get will function properly with the GPU I just purchased. I will be using:

Motherboard: MSI 970A-G45 AMD 9 Series AM3+

CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition

RAM: Crucial Ballistix 4GB DDR3 (1333MHz)

Hard drive: Hitachi 500 GB

Optical Drive: Lite-On Internal 24x CD/DVD Drive

Power Supply: 600 Watt

My goal is to be able to run Skyrim at maximum settings. Please let me know if there are any tweaks I should make to my build.

Thanks.

Yes it is compatible. Though I would bump it to 8 GB, since it's very cheap anyway nowadays.
