Hey guys, im building a new pc for use of video edting and composting in programs like avid, the adobe suite, Nuke, Sony Vegas, 3d's max, etc. I work on feature films and freelance work for smaller clients, so it needs to be able to handle big projects.
Now i have narrowed it downed to these parts

So i need to know if this build will work for me, also im not on a specific budget, but if any of you can give me advice on how to make this pc get better with lets say 500 more dollars i would appreciate your input.
Question about raid, i am thinking of buying 2 more 1.5 hardrives and running a raid 10 system, do i need any extra hardware for that? and if so which?
Thanks again in advance, if you have any questions that will help you help me please ask.
EDIT: I wanted to Clarify that I would like advice on what to spend 500 extra dollars on this pc to make it better, for example get the next best core i7, or get a better mother board, better ram, or get a better graphics card with in the range of 500$. This is really the main thing I need advice since I believe (im a noob) that this is the best I can get with in the 2000$ range, but like i said now i have 500$ more so the budget is really 2500$, although not strict I wouldnt mind missing out on a meal or 2 to make my pc even better. Thanks again In advance
