The hyper 212 evo is the updated version with better heat pipe contact to the CPU. As far as the parts you pick i recommend bot getting a b75 board i suggest something like this (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157293 ). Also you don't need a drive cooler or ram cooler so you save money on that. You don't need the VGA cooler but i don't recommend the evga cards because the cooler is terrible. Since this rig will be used for video editing i highly suggest at least 8gb of ram for increased rendering speeds.

Your board doesn't support overclocking yet you've picked an unlocked chip.
Asrock Extreme 4 Is more what you'd be after. You need a Z77 board to Overclock (Well, P67, Z68, Z77, but Z77 is the latest and most up to date)

G Skill 16GB Get 16GB in 8GB sticks now so you can always add another 16GB later if you want. Cheaper than your current pick as well.

+1 to the Hyper 212 Evo recommendation. It's not a LOT better; but it is the newer revision with a better base. And slightly different fan. You won't need those extra coolers really. (You won't need the RAM cooler, you won't need the HDD cooler, trust me, waste of money). Don't bother with the VGA cooler, just get a non reference design in the first place. Like an Asus Direct CU II model or Gigabyte Windforce, etc. (Asus GTX 660 TI DCUII)

Corsair HX 650 V2 Gold
Personally I'd pick this PSU over your current choice. And with the promo ends up cheaper I believe. Will support 2 660 Ti's in SLI later should you desire; it's got plenty of juice.

If you have some spare cash; I'd suggest upping your CPU to an i7 3770k if you're going to be doing video editing.. Depends how often you do it. If you game more than you video edit; leave it as is. If you're video editing more than you game, consider stepping it up.

Hey, welcome to OCF!

When trying to recommend a build to you, there's some information that's extremely helpful for us to know. If you could answer these few short questions, we'd be happy to help!

• What are you planning to do with this compuer? Please be as specfic as possible.

• What is your budget?
  
  1. Does this include a copy of Windows?
  2. Does this include peripheals (a keyboard, monitor, mouse, speakers, etc.)?
• Are you from the United States or a different country? Are you ordering from your own country or from across borders?
  
  1. Wherever you may be from, does the store that you are planning to order from have a website? It's okay if it isn't in English, we can manage.
  2. If you are from the United States, do you live nearby a Microcenter?

• Do you have any specific requests with the build?
  
  1. Do you plan on overclocking? If yes, do you have a specific goal in mind?
  2. Would you prefer the build to be particularly small?
  3. Would you prefer the build to be particularly quiet?
  4. In general, do you prefer this to be a computer that you can spend money on now and let it rest, or a box built for continuous upgrading?
  5. Do you ever plan on utilizing NVIDIA's SLI or AMD's CrossfireX technologies? These features, with a compatible motherboard, allow a user to link multiple identical graphic cards together for added performance. In real world terms, this lets you buy a second identical graphics card down the line as a relatively cheap and easy way to gain a fairly large boost in performance. However, this requires buying a SLI/CFX compatible motherboard and PSU now, which may result in slightly higher initial cost.

Once again, thank you in advance for taking the time to answer these, and I hope you enjoy your stay at OCF!
