Hi glutonee...   here's a great place to start.   The HafX is the best for air cooled systems with a 230mm front and a 200mm top and 200mm side,  larger slow moving fans that  move lots of air, quietly.
 
The I7-3930k cpu is a 6 core chip and the X79 mobo is a quad channel memory board for much wider ram bandwidth over the Z77 dual channel ram.  Should be perfect for your editing, 3D modeling , etc.

I put in Win 8 instead of Win 7 but that's your call.   The Pro version of Win 7 is needed for over 16GB ram if you need it.
 
Not sure what drives you need, so stayed with default SSD and HDD.
 
The Noctua D14 is an air cooled cooler that is tops in cooling, relaible and quiet.  DS will only stage 1 oc with the 3930k chip. 
 
The gtx 670 is a great card and I put in the 4GB vram version for any heavy rendering you might need. 
 
Hope this helps and good luck. Big%20Smile
