It's not Gold rated, which is not really necessary. It will save you money and it is a really reliable PSU.

I'd also recommend more storage. Uncompressed HD video is going to use up a tonne of space, and ideally you're going to want to hang on to most of it in it's uncompressed form until your project is totally complete (you never know when something will happen and you'll need some raw footage again). Ideally, you'll also want to be making back-ups.

To that end, if you have money left-over or come into some more down the road I definitely recommend additional storage.
