What will the build be used for?
If it is for gaming, then an Intel cpu will be more effective.

What is your budget?
Post links to your parts and where you might buy form.

I love the SSD. hybrid drives I have seen so far will not be very good.
Today, Newegg has a sale on Samsung 830 256gb for $180 after $40 off w/ promo code EMCYTZT2451, ends 10/31

Well ill be buying from amazon and ill be more video editing but gaming wise people only saw a 4 or 5 fps lag with the 8350 compared to the 8150 which was lagging more than 10 and is crucial a better brand or samsung?
 


For gaming, the video card is all important.
For video editing, the cpu power and the number of cores is most important.
For 64 bit enabled apps like photoshop, the total amount of ram is important to reduce workfile I/O.

Do post links, preferably to newegg because it is easiest to check out the details and suggest better/cheaper components.

To my mind, Samsung and Intel are tops for reliability today.
For example, the most popular 256gb crucial M4 ssd($199) had 279 reviews, of which 14% had 0 or 1 egg reviews.

By comparison, the Samsung 830 256gb unit had 243 reviews, and only 4% were negative.
The Intel ssd numbers are comparable to samsung.

I definitely agree there, I'd go for a PC Power & Cooling Silencer MKII or MKIII myself.

I love the SSD. hybrid drives I have seen so far will not be very good.

I would not purchase a hybrid drive for a desktop under any circumstances. You will see no performance benefit from it.
 


Keep your case, unless you hate it.
You will get usb3.0 as a rear i/o panel port on your motherboard.
Or, if you need front panel access, you can always install a module in one of the front external bays.

No it doesn't. If I needed a PSU I'd buy one of those without even thinking about it.
