Im using a machine not as powerfull as that, and I can run with all in ultra, and with 80+ mods without trouble. So you will do it fine!

My specs , for the matter

Intel i5 3 ghz
4 gb Ram ddr3
Evga GTS 450 1gb
windows 7 64 bits

Dont forget to install windows 7 of 64 bits! If its 32 you will mes things up with ram usage and the game will run bad in that case.

I'd say it would run pretty smooth on medium settings. but i'm really not an expert in hardware stuff.

I think he just can put everything on the max settings without worry ! Except the HD packs, I use everything at maximum and I have no problems, and my GPU is not as powerful as his, not to mention the ram !

For at least vanilla max settings you have way more than enough. For HD texture packs, you still have more than enough, don't worry. :)

TES games are better played on PC.
