Well first of all that GPU is pretty damn bad comparing to the rest of the system. The amount of RAM you're getting is WAY overkill. 8GB's of RAM is more than enough for gaming, I'm not sure about editing but no more than 16GB is need for sure.

You can get the cheapest possible CD/DVD combo you can find, they do the job just fine. There's really no difference. Besides, in this day and age almost everything is downloaded online.

Wouldn't He Need Blu-Ray For Burning 1080p Video? (I'm New To ODs So Don't Laugh At Me If I'm Wrong)
