I am planning a new rig but I don't know if it will handle the latest games and future games well, I have decided to ask you guys because you seem to know what you are doing :D
Here is the specs:

AMD Phenom II X6 T1090 Core CPU
M4A89TD PRO/USB3
4GB DDR3-1333 Desktop Memory (Kingston)
1TB-7200RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3 (Seagate)No Stk/No ETA
550W ATX Power Supply- Huntkey Greenpower
ASUS NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX560 TI DIRECTCU II, 1GB DDR5, 256-BIT, PCI EXPRESS 2.0 / D-SUB , DVI-I , HDMI
Coolermaster RC 430 Case - No PSU
DVD Writer 22/12x DL SATA

This doesn't include an OS, I will get that at some point later :D

Its fine, Just add another 4GB module of ram, BF3 likes to have a lot of ram and cpu cores to play with.
As for future proofing yourself I'd say that's perfect, although I would also swap the mobo for the latest chipset..Little bit more future proofing.

I have 4gb of RAM from my old pc which I could use. I will research a newer motherboard. Thank you, you have really helped me out :D
 
On a side, remember to run a 64-bit Windows or that 8Gb of RAM will be useless to you.

The pc looks solid and should run awesome. As soon as the high rez texture packs for Skyrim start hitting the net, you will be glad for the extra RAM, since the guy who made a smaller texture pack said you need around 8Gb of memory for all the textures to work.

I have that planned already, I currently have 4gb of RAM on a 32bit machine (only using 2gb) so I am definitely going to get 64bit :D
 
That PC is fine like that, maybe just a bigger power supply? If you ever want to add two cards (Crossfire) then that power will struggle I think. The CPU is awesome, I have the smaller 1050T @ 2.8Ghz stock overclocked to 3.85Ghz and running no problems, but I have read the 1090T & 1055T max overclocks are about the same (~4.1Ghz).
 
Also try and see if you can get you're hands on a huntkey Jumper instead of that green power. They are solid psu's and pretty good value for money.
