That's not much of a budget build... one key thing you did wrong in the beginning is the 4 DIMMs of RAM with that MOBO, it only supports dual-channel, so you should only have two DIMMs. Also, you really don't need anywhere close to 16 GB unless you're super serious about editing, I do a bunch of fast editing with a normal HDD, 8GB RAM, and a FX-6350. Also, don't get a green HDD, get a blue or something. Finally, that video card is incredibly weak compared to the rest of the build, I would go with 8 GB of RAM in 2 sticks (around $80) and a smaller HDD (maybe 2TB) and get yourself a 7870 or something.
