Can I run Skyrim on this desktop?

Ok, asked about a laptop a wee while ago but this time trying with a desktop. It's described as a gaming laptop and here are the features, please tell me what would need to be changed. Just want it to run smoothly enough with good enough graphics and to be able to use mods:

Processor- AMD Opteron 2.30Ghz Quad-Core (2356)

RAM- 8GB

Hard Disk Drive- 250GB SATA2 Hard Drive

Graphics- XFX (ATI) HD5450 - 1 GB GDDR3 - PCIe - VGA,DVI & HDMI Output

I'm hoping this is all fine, just want to play Skyrim and download mods so I can mess around and maybe make a few of my own. I'd like decent graphics but they aren't a great concern to be honest. I'm budgeted too so spending a lot isn't on the cards and these are the featires of a desktop I've found and it's expensive enough for me.
