System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, video recording/editing, server hosting

Parts Not Required: Keyboard, mouse, monitor, speakers

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: No preference

Country: I live in the US, I don't care where parts are made

Parts Preferences: No preference

Overclocking: Maybe

SLI or Crossfire: Maybe

Additional Comments: I would like to be able to smoothly play Bioshock Infinite, Team Fortress 2, heavily modded/GLSL shaders minecraft, and smoothly record the screen and edit video footage, so for all these reasons I would like to have a good graphics card. I would also like to be able to host a minecraft server in the background and still be able to do other things smoothly. I would also like it to run windows 8.

Thank you!

Would it work to start out without the solid state drive and add it later if I wanted?
