Could I suggest as you want to video edit getting more RAM 16gb should suit your needs well. (Here is a 16gb RAM option - http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00A771ZJG/ref=noref?ie=UTF8&psc=1&s=computers) You also dont need a 1000W power supply unless you plan to overclock, 550W is ample with the set up you have chosen as your pc will need 544W of power including a 20% allowance, if you wanted you could choose a 650W to be safe. You will want to check if the CPU cooler fits in the case you chose at its quite large (you may not even need it at all). I am also considering to buy either the MSI or Palit 4GB 770 and im not sure which to pick either, although im think the Palit as it has 3 fans instead of 2 on the card itself. You may also want to consider the ASUS Maximux VI Hero motherboard as it is more aimed at gaming than the Sabertooth but both are good motherboards (its a slightly cheaper option than the Sabertooth aswell)
