OW and MC @ 60+FPS, no problem.
Video Editing on i5 isn't a problem either. It may just take long to export the finished video is all, preventing you from using your computer over night or whatever. (1-2 hours) 16gbs is a good spot for video editing.
Only having 1 HDD/storage device may be a problem for recording though. If OW and MC are the only games you're really gonna play, get a 120gb SSD ($40-50) as your main drive for the OS, OW, MC, Vegas and PS, and then put record the videos to the HDD. and you should still have like 30-40GBs of free space leftover at least. (This will also make your system feel very fast when doing things like browsing the web., or loading an OW level)

Everything is compatible, BUT one thing to note, your ram will only run at 2133 mhz because your board doesn't support 2400mhz ram speeds. This difference isn't enough to matter, and if the 2400 is the cheapest you're finding don't bother changing it.

two things the 600b is an ok power supply. look at the xfx line there rebranded seasonic units. the other issue the 950 is older gpu. i would wait a bit look at the new 1060 3g cards that are coming out. there info on toms hardware front page about evga new 3g gpu that just dropped.

True, the 1050 will come out soon to replace the 950, but pricing (and the prices not being gouged for an extra $100) can make the 950 still attractive.

Recording to the same HDD you're running your OS/game/recording software off of can cause the recordings to be kinda jittery, they fine for like 98% of the time though.
