Hi there, building my first PC. Mainly going to be used for gaming and possibly video editing. Working with around a £500 budget with need of some sort of wireless adapter and OS. Any feedback on whether this is a good build for the price and changes you'd make is much appreciated.

CPU - AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black
Motherboard - MSI 970A-G46
HDD - Western Digital Blue 500gb
Memory - G.Skill 8GB (2x4GB)
GPU - HIS H785QN2G2M
PSU - Corsair 430w
Case - Cooler Master Elite 430
Wireless - Asus PCE N15
OS - Windows 7 Home 64 Bit

Thanks in advance.
 
You dont need the 6670 if you use 1866/2133/2400 RAM, plus the hybrid needs the fast RAM also otherwise it's useless...

I would stick with this if you are going to be doing some video editing.
If not, go i3 with a 7850 2GB card, which will be a lot better than the Trinity, with or without the 6670 for hybrid xfire.
