Well you went with an extremely high end CPU, everything for overclock and a overkill PSU only to pair it with a GTX 950? I don't know your budget but I would instead go with a 600w~700w PSU, the i7 6700(non-k) and a b150 or h110 motherboard so with  this money saved can afford something like the GTX 1070, also throw a HDD on it, 256gb SSD is perfect for the windows and other important applications but far from enough for games.

Don't get the Samsung 950 Pro, go for the EVO instead is my advice. You won't miss the performance, but you will thank the money you spent on other components ^^. I totally agree with Princess Candence and Matt. The 950 doesn't really get you good performance, it's kinda shite. But hey! Tell us what you're gonna use your computer for so we can help you make it perfect for you ^^! (Also you might want to wait for Zen or Kabylake)

no, get a less wattage PSU and step down the CPU to an I5 6600K and get a better GPU because that GPU is pretty shit

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

What kind of video editing?

i would recommend getting a i7 6700 (non-K), a h110 or b150 motherboard  and then use the money you saved to get a 1060 (3GB or 6GB variant).
