Pretty good build, PSU can be replaced with some cheaper choice like Seasonic M12II 520W. Any 400+ PSU can handle your build :) For me, I will squeeze the case a little bit, hdd a little bit and MB a little bit, monitor a little bit and try to get a GTX 1070 for the same budget. Just another way to go :)

I would suggest a better monitor as your top upgrade. You are going to be editing video on a tiny 23" 1080p screen.... Hmmm. Tough to get the best output on such a display.

I prefer the Fractal Design Define r5 case without a window. It is close to silent. Useful if you need to do a voice over. Speaking of which, maybe add a microphone?

The OEM version of Windows 10 is 10 bucks cheaper on amazon.

For about the same price, I prefer this PSU to yours:
https://www.amazon.com/Seasonic-SSR-750FX-ATX12V-Modular-Compact/dp/B073GY89G5?th=1

You can get a 1060 6gb for around 270 from amazon. Or get the better 1070 for just under 400.
Do the 1070 if gaming is high on your list. Skip it and stay with the 1060 6gb if it is mainly for work, with a little gaming on the side. Also skip it, if it means you're stuck with that monitor.
