Build looks great! But do you really need a 750w PSU? If your just using integrated graphics, then that's wayyyy overkill. Save some money and get around a 550w PSU. Also, what video editing programs are you using? Some programs can utilize CUDA cores found in nvidia video cards for rendering. Really good build otherwise :) 

for basic video encoding,photo editing this seems like overkill

Are you planning to Overclock? .because you wont really need the arctic silver 5 or
aftermarket cooler.

However, this seems like a really nice build to have for gaming if you were to add a mean VGA. : )

yeah i might be lowering the psu i think i picked that one out when i had a high end video card going in

not sure what programs i will be using yet

yes i got the cooler i did cause i figure i might overclock down the line and its not really expensive so i figure i would get it now and set it up now so whenever i want to overclock i can

when it comes to the cpu i chose i figure i want this pc to last me a good while and i would like to learn more advanced programs for editing so since i can afford it right now i figure might as well go for one of the better cpus plus can utilize hd3000 graphics with the 2600k

i do think i will wind up adding a video card to it eventually but really want to see how the hd3000 works and what if any limitations it gives to me
