spend more on a more premium psu you also probaly wont need 800w so i would go with 600-700 watts as the keplar cards are very power efficient

It'll give you much better performance than your original build. Just throw in whatever mouse and keyboard you want and you're good to go. If you don't plan on doing a whole lot of video editing, I would suggest you drop the CPU down a notch. The i5 3570k is more than capable of handling itself in light video editing and for £100 less than the i7.
