Hi, I'm planning on building a computer that will be used for video editing.
Budget is $650, give or take $20
Again, I will be using this for video editing (no games at all, so graphics card isn't necessary)
I live in the US
This build needs everything except OS (needs keyboard, mouse, monitor)
This is what I have so far:

(This should be public, but if you can't see it, I can upload a picture)
I will be ordering this likely tomorrow, and I just want to make sure if everything is compatible. If you can also give me suggestions that will save me money; I would gladly take them.
Thanks!
Suggestion that will save money: don't buy expensive mouse/keyboard.

Don't worry, I got like the cheapest keyboard/mouse that I could find that still are reliable. But thanks for the suggestion!

imo drop the monitor and pick up an old 1600x1200 (or even 1280x1024, even that is bigger than what you have) CRT from a thrift store, and add a dedicated graphics card. 4670 would be good here.
Also replace the motherboard, that one is a POS.

I will be doing NO gaming whatsoever, so unless using integrated will bring down my performance with video editing, I don't think I need a graphics card.
What is POS?
Piece of shit.
I tried it out, probably not very good. Just remove the mouse/keyboard if you already have it.

Edit: I know my windows is messed up. It keeps changing itself back to this format when I change it to the standard windows xp format.

You will need a dedicated graphics card for video editing.
and POS = Piece of shit

Ok, I switched the motherboard. Would I still need to get a dedicated card? I heard that the 780 can even do light gaming.
It's not that I don't want to take your advice, I'm on a really tight budget, and I would like as much processing power as possible. But if you really think having a dedicated card would help, then I can go a bit cheaper on the processor to let a graphics card in.
Just get the dedicated if you want to do video editing seriously.

Ok, then adding a graphics card.

I think this is about as far as I can stretch it.
Looks nice.

I didn't copy and paste it right. The list is fixed.
Op what you got there is pretty good
Ignore n00bEmpty unless you want a massive fail.

Damn, the links keep screwing up. Guess the actual BB URL didn't change but the name for the URL did. Not saying it was the best build but eh, I tried.
Get this RAM, [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231277[/url]
And this CPU, [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103706[/url]
(Directed towards n00bEmpty's build.)
