Budget Video Rendering Build

[Roaraxe565]

Hello everyone! I am in need of some assistance. My friend has asked me to help him build a computer that will be primarily use for video editing and rendering and using Adobe Creative Suite. I have a first draft build for him but it is over his budget and I am not entirely sure what should go in to a rendering build I primary do gaming. Any advice on what to change or other builds would be greatly appreciated.

His budget is $500

You can cut down to the 8320.

What software are they planning on using? See if the software or benchmarks for it favor intel or AMD. Good multi-threaded programs may run good on the AMD, but a good single threaded program will do better on intel.
