More than okay.

Is the 4 GB of DDR3 on the GPU? Or are you talking about system RAM? If it's on the GPU, yeah that'll be fine.

If it's system RAM, still fine for what you want to do, but just expect a lot of paging and things to be kind of slow (unrelated to Dolphin, Dolphin will be fast)

Its 4GB DDR3 of the gpu

I'm just nitpicking, but I think that 4 GB is GDDR5, a special GPU memory type, not DDR3. DDR3 would be really slow on a GPU! Just for future reference. I don't think any 960s come with DDR3 memory. Smile

Now i have this other question, will the i7-4970 be good enough?

Yep. That'll do way more things than Dolphin nicely.
