You've built a high end gaming rig which is more than capable of video editing. 4K, high refresh 1440p all well within the capabilities of the RTX 3070.

CPU is just about the fastest possible for gaming. Might get a little more out of the 8 and 12 core versions, but not hugely so.

No comment on the PSU, hopefully it works.

Some other people are saying to go with a 240 AOI vs the Hyper212 for the CPU heatsink... thoughts?

The time to ask for opinions is BEFORE you buy.

I might question the use of a unknown psu.
Also, why not a single 2tb ssd? space management is easier with a songle C drive.
I can return some of those items... 30 day return policy on bestbuy, etc.

The one Samsung SSD I currently am running now and I just bought the NVME... Also I didn't know if by using 2 of the NVME' slots, would I be taking up the PCI 4 lane from the GPU???
