Building a computer for mainly gaming, but amateur colour grading (1080p, no SDI monitor) and editing on the side. Here's my current parts list:

The main thing I'm unsure about is the motherboard:
Will it overclock a 4790K well? I saw a very cheap board here that supports Crossfire, but I'm not sure if this board will be any good at this price? Will it overclock well? I don't mind changing graphics cards to a (cheaper) R9 280X...

let me know what you guys think, where I should save money and where it would be better spent etc. budget is £850 max

If you will be overclocking then the Maximus or Z97 are a good choice. For editing I believe the NVIDIA will perform better than the AMD.
