This is the build I have planned for light gaming and video editing. (Which is why I chose the 8350). Any tips or suggestions on this build would be much appreciated! 

An SSD maybe?

Some people might start to yell about the power supply you picked out being a CX series. They are decent, but not the best.

Try to add in an SSD and get a different PSU. Also, you can get a cheaper version of Windows on /r/microsoftsoftwareswap/

An SSD is definitely a planned upgrade when I get some extra cash but for the moment I thought the HDD would do. I didn't know about the PSU but I'm definitely switching to something else since so many people warned me. Any suggestions for a better one?
