That PSU is actually good, I was a little worried when I saw the name as I had never heard of it. Depending on how much you are paying for that SSD, you might be able to get a 64GB version and buy more RAM or a better GPU. Rendering won't really use an SSD so the only benefit will be overall system snappiness. I don't even use an SSD in both my gaming desktop or sever. My laptop is all PCI based flash storage.
Same here I was gonna ask for them to add a corsair instead but most people have had posotive experiences with it so you cant go wrong I was gonna use the SSD as a boot drive and for my main programs maybe an odd game and then use the 1TB for my game capturing videos and rendered videos and my other junk

For a locked processor? You don't need any sort of aftermarket cooling at all, you can run on the stock fan and be perfectly fine.
Looks good. You might want to look at the 550W version of that PSU (£60) - with the 450W one, you're at ~90% capacity under full load, so you've not got much room for upgades, capacitor "sag" over time, etc (also, being at lower load means it'll probably be a little quieter, as the fan will be spinning more slowly).

A good idea, but if it were me I would also consider the fact that odd video files you don't need on your internal HDD can be stored on cheap external drives. Either use a USB 3.0 enclosure or a Thunderbolt one (faster transfer speeds). Will you be editing/rendering footage that is shot in high quality file formats? (notably RAW)

Oops sorry I accidently pressed mark as answer and I do have have a sata to usb 3.0 cable and ill just hook some hardrives from some laptops I have, ill be editing 1280x720p at 60fps or 1920x1080 at 30fps depending on what game im playing but I feel its more convieneint and a bit faster to store them on internal drives although atm I'm using an external drive for my stuff because I currently have a 120GB 840 Evo in my current laptop
