Can you please post the url for the pcpartpicker build. It's easier sometimes than viewing an image, and we can edit stuff and post a new link of needed.

As much as your spending, have considered getting a single, larger 950 pro rather than that and the 850? Or you could go for a single PCIE SSD.

you should think about video editing on IPS panels is much better because you have the color accuracy you need

That makes sense. A good mix of drives in that case.

Just a few suggestions, up to you whether you take them on board or not   http://pcpartpicker.com/list/3KpbXH

 

Changed the RAm to same speed, but cheaper by about $100, and changed the PSU to a cheaper, same wattage but better. Couldn't really say for the rest of it as it's personal choice and/or stuff I don't really know what your usage is for, so hope that helps a little anyway :)
