Not a bad build, apart from the headphones. They really dont have a good price/performance ratio. If you really want a headset, get it from a real headphone manufacturer like this one:

Btw there is a dedicated section for New Builds and Planning ;)

Thanks but I don't think I should repost it there because I don't want to set off any spam trigger or something like that

Well gaming/video editing

 

Video editing this is probably fine. For gaming you'd be better off with an i5 4690k and GTX 980 however I think you'll benefit from the i7's hyperthreading in video editing.
