I have given you 2 tb hdd and 256 gb ssd as you are into movies and videos i thought you will need a lot of space.
the blue ray writer is also for that reason.
You are not into OC so i have given you the locked version of i7 4690 and h97 motherboard.
And a strong enough GPU for gaming i can give you a much better GPU you have a good budget but you are not into hard gaming so i thought it would be a waste of money to give to high end GPU.

Hope you will like the build.

first of all mine build is much better.

32 gb ram doesn't mean fast PC the if the system requires 2 gb of ram then it will draw 2 gb & 30 gb will sit idle.
In a modern gaming PC the max ram required is 6 gb and suggested is 8 gb so for general purpose pc 4 gb is more than enough.

i7 3930k is a 3rd generation processor an old one in short and if you are not into overclocking then getting a k version processor and a liquid cooler is a complete waste.

the GPU you have chosen is very poor and 3 generations behind.

750 watt is a total overkill for this system 450 - 500 watt is what you need and if its corsair cx 750 then a poor quality PSU.

hope this helps if you have any questions feel free to ask.
