I am more towards intel over amd for video editing and I also would need wifi because of where my router is

are you just video editing or do you need gaming performance as well? do you need OS and/or peripherals?

youll want a cpu cooler as soon as you can spare $30 even for a Cooler Master 212 EVO, because that cpu runs hot on the stock cooler and you wont be able to overclock.
