Change the PSU to XFX 450W. ^^^

That processor wont do real video editing but he can upgrade since he is just doing montages and stuff I'm assuming. Spend the Extra 4 bucks and get corsair RAM (Adata isn't the best). Z9 is better than the haf912 but the haf has front usb 3. If you want a zalman with front usb3 than get a z11. You can get the HDD cheaper look on amazon or microcenter. He still needs to get a monitor I'm assuming because he was getting a laptop. If not then get these:

I can't help but read your posts super-fast because of your avatar.

AMD beats intel in integrated graphics. He has a small budget, use AMD. AData is fine, he's not going to need Corsair. Now for the case; I highly doubt that he even has 1 USB 3.0 capable device, 2.0 will do. As for the HDD; Sure, he might save $5, but I'm sure he'll be having a great time building is computer while waiting for his separate order to come. For the PSU; Sure, go ahead and change it.

I was just saying because it is a pain to hook it up. not for his usage sake. (Case and mobo issue)

I guess so but boost it up a little because that CPU isn't really great in other aspects. (I have no clue about AMD really I specialize in Intel but I'm going to go for AMD in my next build)

For the PSU, Seasonic is better than XFX.

The Trinity series really improved from Llano.

Seasonic is the OEM for all XFX PSUs.

I'm aware of that but I always trust it better coming directly from Seasonic.

You can burn it to a disc and then set the bios to boot from disc. Just make sure you use ImgBurner to burn the iso or something of the type.

But you can't say it's better when it's the exact same thing. You also don't want to be misleading people by implying that they are at all different.

Also, you can get Windows 7 for $80 using this promo code on Newegg: EMCNJNJ46
