Help a noob build a PC for Photo/Video

[Affixer]

I have read several threads about building a desktop and have pulled together some components. If anybody minds reviewing this and has helpful critique that would be great. I would like mostly to photo edit, (possibly video edit in the future), would like to have multiple displays, including project to 60' tv.
I might be overshooting my needs here, so let me know if I can save significant bucks. I definitely want the SSD for OS, photoshop. I absolutely want a quiet system, with good airflow (would like to have some cheap quiet fan suggestions).
Worried that I might need a better video card, but I don't game at all. I just want to be able to have high resolution, and be able to switch between photos/video without delay. I'm definitely on a budget, my first shopping list got above 2k... I would like to be in the 700$

For editing you will want to drop the Red drive and get the black instead. The 5900 rpm red is not fast enough.
For video editing, when you do your final rendering you want to have a separate source and destination drive (unless you can afford a large SSD lol) So make sure you save room on your ssd for one of those. After the render is done you can move the final product to the HDD if you had the SSD as the destination.

Are you editing for money or hobby? Please don't overspend for hobby ($700 sounds like hobby to me). Photo and video editors spend a lot of extra money on systems just to save a few minutes per hour because time is money! For example, I have about 20 PAID videos left to edit this year. I need to work as fast as possible (no PC slow downs) and render as fast as possible because I have deadlines. I usually open many instances of Vegas and work on Premiere Pro and After Effects with Photoshop open with about 10 different 100MB PSDs all at the same time!

That said, I think you can use a larger SSD. I have 128GB on my laptop and by the time I install Windows and Adobe, I only have about 40GB left! Also, it is better to use multiple drives vs 1 large HDD. The GPU is also very weak. It will not bother you in Photos, but will in Video. Both builds are geared towards video and are total overkill for Photos! I recommend building for what required the most power. If you want photos only, a budget Kaveri build would suffice.

You can consider this (both will edit and multi-task smoothly):

Both have advantages to the one you built: Larger SSD, 16GB of RAM, Better GPU and overall better HDD setup. I think the Dark Rock is queiter, but not sure how much so. I purchased a Noctua D15 from NCIX US for $65. I highly recommend that one if your budget allows. It is quiet and keeps the CPU cool. Make sure your case fits any cooler though! Large coolers are LARGE!

Don't let the first build being an AMD concern you. In middle budget scenarios, they are basically equal.

Photo only build (probably work for hobby i.e. non-paid video editing as well):
