Below, I have a list of the parts that I'm definitely including in my build. However, I need someone to help me pick out the actual computer components. The budget I really want to stay in is about $800, but it can go up to $1000 if need be. Also, you can tell me if what I included is good or bad and what you recommend. I just want to be able to game smoothly and edit videos. Thanks!

A 750watt psu is a bit much,but it's a good one and for a good price right now.Every day you look things change so will need to be adapted.

Thank you so much dude! You gave me both an AMD and Intel list, so I thank you for that :) I will consider both and maybe I will post what I come up with in the end. Again, thanks!
