My build suggestions and comments welcome

How much video editing are you going to do? Just like Youtube videos or are you going full out production (Adobe Premiere / Sony Vegas) ?

Im looking mostly at you tube videos

The 7950 will outperform the 660. There is no need for the i7 and 16gb RAM for primarily a gaming rig depending on the extent of you video editing. The gigabyte board you chose is good. I preferably like the Extreme 4. The Barracuda 2TB is better than the WD Green models for the same price. The 212 EVO is a great cooler for the price. The HAF 912 doesn't have front USB 3.0 ports. You may wish to utilize this in the future so that is why I went with the 300R from Corsair.

EDIT: My video question was answered, go with the i5.

Really good build a hardcore gaming and same question This pc so far is just a full gaming pc and might not work with good editing as mentioned ^^

cball1311 that's exactly what i was going to say with the GPU as i have a 7950 2GB and it is very powerfull and the gb Ram yeah for gaming 16gb is way too much

First thanks for all these suggestions gives me something to think about, and I would like to have the ability to use programs such as sony vegas should I choose too. The i5 3570k was my original choice but would the i7 be better with programs such as sony vegas?

OK then I'd go with something similar to cball's build. You don't need a 3770K and 16GB of RAM to edit Youtube videos.:

looks good.

So 16gb ram would be considered overkill for this build I may back it down to 8gb as suggested.

not overkill, but a waste if u dont do mad multitasking and big video editing.

I dig the card in this build

than  

I still think the 7950 would be a better choice as it is comparable to the 670 in most games and is much cheaper. IMO.

No the 670 and 7970 (standard, non GHz edition) are comparable. The 660TI and 7950 are about on the same page.

except u forgot the 7950 overclocks to 7970 levels and somethimes beyond so that passage is incorrect.

I'm just going by standard, non overclock benchmarks. In which case it's still accurate.

yes i agree non overclocked 7950=gtx660ti. but overclocked is a different case. for some reason the 7950 is a wild overclocker and the 600 series doesnt do crazy ocs.
