Well those system requirements are quite low so you can certainly put together a current model system that will perform quite well. You've neglected to specify a budget however (and please don't say "cheap" or "don't break the bank", just give us a number).

Are you using Corel's Pinnacle Studio? Most of your specs seem to point that direction over DaVinci Resolve and Adobe Premiere.
Try taking a look at this build which should retail around $1,600. https://community.microcenter.com/discussion/11596/build-guide-entry-level-4k-editing-pc-for-davinci-resolve
The only issue I see would be burning DVD's since most cases don't have internal 5.25" spots for DVD burners. If you ok with either changing the case to the Cooler Master HAF XB or using external optical drives, then you should be fine.
-
Yes, Pinnacle studio is correct. I would resort to an external burner. Thank you for your comments that I will definitely take into account

Blender can be positively brutal on graphics card use depending on what you're doing. So whatever you can squeeze in your budget is probably best.
-
???? I think you posted on the wrong discussion......
-
Oh I saw video editing and was thinking blender for some reason, never mind
