Will Intel 945 Gm chipset Motherboard support AMD Athalon X2 4600+ and an XFX NVIDIA GeForce 8600GT?

Question

I am planning to assemble a desktop PC with the following:

1. Intel 945GM Chipset Motherboard.

2. AMD Athalon X2 4600+(4.6 GHz)

3. XFX NVIDIA GeForce 8600GT(512 MB & 540 MHz)

4. 2 GB DDR2 RAM

5. 250 GB SATA HardDrive

I would like to know whether the 945 will be able to support the Processor and the Graphics Card. I would also like to know whether I would be able to play Crysis(even in the moderate would do) with this configuration.

I don't want to go for Core2Duo as it costing way too much as compared to AMD neither do I want to go above XFX 8600(the model I stated). If 945 doesn't support, please suggest me a model that does and it need not be Intel(you may suggest any company).

I have contacted the companies but they couldn't give a proper answer.

A thanx beforehand for all those who answer.
