My computer specs:

Intel Pentium g3258

60gb ssd (operating system and other important apps)

1TB Seagate barracuda

EVGA GTX 750ti sc

MSI B85-G43 GAMING LGA motherboard *I know I shouldn't spend more money on my motherboard then my cpu but its for a better upgrade path later

Xion Performance mATX USB 3.0 Tower Case

EVGA 500watt

CPU. If you are really into editing/rendering, you need i7 or other 4+ core CPU. PSU is ok imo since its reputable brand. Also GPU is fine for now. Depends really how high graphics and resolution you want to use.
