- Geforce GTX560Ti
- Win7 64bit
- HDD SATA 1.0TB Samsung.

It sounds good enough and where I live those things are expensive, nevertheless itīll be good to know if Iīm doing something stupid.
You are good with this but is very important to pay attention at the power supply and try to have an big case well ventilated also

I would recommend 6gb ram, its a really significant improvement over 4gbs
also, try to get a sata 6gb drive, its much better than sata 3gb

Doesn't look too bad. I'm running a 650W PSU and feel like I'm close to the limit. I'd try to go 750W or up. Beyond that, looks good.
