New gaming/video editing pc

I want a gaming pc for around 1500 using the fx 8350, a gtx 780, a 240GB ssd, a 1tb wd black hard drive and an ASUS Crosshair V Formula-Z mobo. I don't know which type of ram, which case, which CPU cooler and which psu to use.

I will mainly be using it to play games, record gameplay footage and edit videos.

Have fun there.Your already have pretty much all you need.

For RAM I'd recommend G.SKILL 16GB @ any frequency you want.(The RAM doesn't really matter)

CPU cooler either Corsair H100i(and make sure your case will support it) or a Noctua NH-D14.If you want to spend less money,get a Coolermaster Hyper 212 Evo.

For PSU,you could get a Corsair RM650.

The case is your choice.Pick what you like.

 

Also,where are you buying from?

i5 4670k @ 4.2GHz (Coolermaster Hyper 212 Evo); ASrock Z87 EXTREME4; 8GB Kingston HyperX Beast DDR3 RAM @ 2133MHz; Asus DirectCU GTX 560; Super Flower Golden King 550 Platinum PSU;1TB Seagate Barracuda;Corsair 200r case.

Everyone likes the Fractal Design R4.

Some other great choices are :

NZXT H440 (very very good for silence)

Corsair 450D

intel 4770K with Hyperthreading CPU would do much better in video editing than the AMD 8350

if you play a lot of old tech single-threaded games (monster online MMO's AKA as ESO, planetside2..) you defenetly want an intel CPU.

To play modern games and record while playing and for editing video's i don't think the price difference for the intel build is justified.

Your CPU should be the FX-8320 it's the same as the FX-8350 only lower clock speed but you can overclock it it's unlocked..

For modern games and multi-threaded applications there's not much difference between the FX 8 core and the intel i7 as shown in the LTT cinebench contest results so far:
