Help the poor student with a budget rig (dream rigs included)

Hello everyone, 

 

So i am a senior in highschool looking to get a really cheap build that runs with a preferably good performance. These are the things i would prefer it to handle or do.

 

1)Run games at 60fps (preferably higher quality but doesnt have to)

 

2)Can be used to edit videos( adobe premier pro and after effects)

 

3)will not have problems with the hot and humid weather of hawaii.

 

4)under 1000$ cheaper the better.

 

So i have never build a computer before but i feel like i have a grasp on what is needed. (but probably not) anyways here are my builds from cheapest to my reasonable DREAM build(please feel free to rape and ravage my setups and tell me what is wrong and what i need):
