What is the monitor resolution?

First one is €50 over budget but if the monitor is 1080p then this would be a reasonably balance between video editing and gaming as you are prepared to overclock, the FX 6300 would be a decent CPU on this budget.

Item|Price
BitFenix Shinobi Midi-Tower USB 3.0 black, ohne Netzteil|€53.03
Super-Flower Amazon 80Plus 450W|€45.39
ASRock 970 Pro3, AM3+, ATX|€60.89
8GB-Kit Corsair XMS3 DDR3-1333 CL9|€44.85
AMD FX-6300 Prozessor, Boxed, Sockel AM3+|€120.50
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO - Intel/AMD|€28.56
Sapphire Radeon HD 7850, 2GB GDDR5, lite retail|€166.00
Seagate Barracuda 7200 1000GB, SATA 6Gb/s|€59.00
Shipping|€18.99
Total|€597.21

On the other hand if it is 1024x768 with no plans for upgrading, I make the following changes. Lesser GPU as the HD7850 would be overpowered at such a lower resolution, substitution in a better processor, slightly better motherboard (would be better for overclocking an FX 8320 than the Pro3 version) and a 550W PSU just to cover potential future overclocking of the processor and a much more powerful GPU. Slightly over budget as well but swapping in the FX6300 above would bring it well under.

No problem, just cringing as I re-reading my first post as you'd swear english wasn't my first language
