I'm looking to upgrade my PC after having built it two years ago. When I built it I didn't know to much about computers and that really hasn't changed much. Originally I wanted to be able to play games and edit videos with it, so far it's done that pretty well. I would like to start working towards making a build that is suited more for editing and graphic design than playing games on.
Currently this is what I've been using
Motherboard: ASRock H67M
CPU: Intel i5 2400
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 ti
PSU: Ultra 750w
Memory: 8gb of G. Skill
Case: Phantom NZXT full size
Hard Drives: Vector OCZ 128gb SSD and Western Digital 500gb HDD
I don't think I forgot anything there but feel free to let me know if I have.
I want to further my knowledge in editing programs and start using more advanced programs, such as Avid and Nuke. After searching the avid website I managed to find the specs they recommend for their program.

I couldn't find any specs on what is recommended for Nuke on the companies website. I'm not worried about that at the moment though, seeing as the program is so expensive and I currently have After Effects I can use for the time being.
I'm not sure exactly what I should be getting to get towards the specs of the programs. So if anyone has anything they can recommend or on how to make sure everything is compatible I would greatly appreciate it. And If at all possible I would like to see if any parts for the upgrade would be compatible with the current parts I have, to build it over a period of time and still improve performance of what I have.
