Your computer looks great and very powerful. I would recommend a Intel Core 2 quad Q9450 or higher since video editing is much faster if you using a quad core. (No need to go for i7).
Having a quad core will also benefit your future gaming experience since newer games can make use of quad core processing.
Remember to have a good cooling system as your computer will be quite hot.
