The SSD is garbage. Bait and switch product. I recommend the Sandisk SSD Plus 120GB instead.

 

GIGABYTE AMD cards are voltage locked and have pretty sub-par cooling. Any other brand aside from ASUS would fair better.

 

The NEX series isn't quite the best. Unless you're upgrading to two 970s (and in that case, a single GPU solution is always better), there's really no need for a 750W PSU. You can, however, find the EVGA B2 750W for pretty cheap. Get that instead.

'Fanboyism is stupid' - someone on this forum.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

You don't need 16GB for gaming and video editing, 8GB would be enough

Although you'll lose a SSD, but you could get one later. This is the best one I could give you

Yo don't know much about a video editing PC huh?
