Is this build good for casual video gaming and video editing?

[AlexWirtes]

I am looking for a good PC that can be upgraded easily once I get enough money to get the parts. I want it to be able to play games like Skyrim, Steam games, and MMO's decently. I also want to be able to edit videos in Adobe After Effects. I live in the US. I am a college student on a budget and don't want to see anything higher than $1,000. Bottom line is that I want the cheapest build I can get for my needs and be able to upgrade everything in it once I accumulate the coin. I am not a big enthusiast so I'm not worried about waiting the extra 3 seconds for a loading screen to go by or play a game at the highest graphics setting as I probably won't know the difference.

Whoops, forgot to post the link! XD

dump everything you can now into your i7/gpu

Think about it this way, its a lot cheaper and easier to throw in a new GPU, than it is too buy cheap on the other components and have to replace/upgrade all of them down the line. Especially when going all in like you suggest only nets you a mid-range graphics card on a rig thats primarily for video editing.

Also if your going at this from, the graphics are what matters, why would you buy a $50 monitor and ruin that?
