What about video editing? I know that sucks up alot of RAM.
Also, you recommend I should even think of over-clocking with the decient parts since just "decent" is already plenty to run any game?
I'm no expert on video editing, but from what little work I've done in that area using software like Adobe Premier I'd say 4GB of memory is plenty. It entirely depends upon how much footage you are intending to use in a single piece at any given time and how large the files are. Full 1080p video captured through FRAPS is generally huge to begin with (100s of MBs for a few minutes), but that is due to it being uncompressed. If you compress the files or use a lower recording resolution then you should have no issue when the time comes for editing together your work.
I've seen a variety of opinions on who should overclock and how useful it is. Personally, I'm not entirely convinced it's worth the time or risk if you buy the hardware you need in the first place. Now, for those operating on a shoestring budget, or for those that just need every last drop of performance, I can understand why you'd want to. My old E6850 has been overclocked since the beginning at a modest 3GHz simply because I've never bothered to save up the money needed for a major system update (IE. replacing the CPU, motherboard, and RAM all at the same time). Since you are intending to purchase good hardware, I'd say it isn't necessary.
