I need help here. Im new to building PCs and I wanted to know if this build would work out. Im not really too concerned about price. I'm planning on using the PC for gaming, 3d animation, video game design and maybe video editing. So basically I'm planning on wasting my life on this thing. Here they are:
*I don't yet have a PSU or case, still doing research but recommendations help.

Motherboard:Asus Sabertooth 990FX R2.0
CPU:AMD FX-8350CPU
Cooler:Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
Video Card:
Memory:Corsair Vengeance 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
HDD:Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
ODD:Asus DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD/CD Writer
This is what I chose for the build so far. I don't want to go in the wrong direction sand end up in a thousand dollar mess.

If you want to do video editing and 3D animation I would recommend an i7-4790k. It has great hyper threading capabilities that the 8350 just can't handle. For PSU I would go with en EVGA 850W G2 and I would use an EVGA 980 Classified (If you don't care about price). Also, if you want to do video editing you are going to need more space so make it 2 or even 3 TB and add a 128 GB SSD to install the OS on. For a case I would go with a Fractal R5 or a Be Quiet! Base 800.
