6GB KIngston DDR3 RAM,

Yes you should be able to run the GTX 950 in your setup , you have the slot and enough power.

Thanks for the reply, just a few more questions.
WILL MY CPU BOTTLENECK THE GPU( IF SO HOW MUCH)?
WILL MOST OF THE GAMES RUN IN ULTRA SETTINGS AT 1360*768 RESOLUTION?
AND WILL THERE BE ANY REDUCTION IN PERFORMANCE AS MY MOTHERBOARD HAS A PCI e GEN 2 SLOT(IF SO HOW MUCH)?

That combo at that resolution should be decent.

Slot Speed between 2.0 and 3.0 is almost identical.
