Hi,
for video editing i strongly suggest u move to a core i7 4770k and as for the storage set i suggest u move the 1TB HDD to "storage set 2" and add raid 0, as for storage set 1 (o.s) you should add an SSD for the operating system.

But make sure the 1TB is enough for storing all the videos's u edit.

You might want to consider adding an SSD. Use it for Windows and programs. Even the for the video you are actively editing. Depending on the length of the videos you may want a more powerful processor. But if it is just clips from gaming, I think you would be fine with the one you have.
