Everything there will work together fine. If you do a lot of editing, and heavy gaming, you may want to look into a GTX580 or 6990 (about equal. 512 (Nvidia) 5 way processors is equal to 2560 1 way processors (AMD) the 6990 has 3072. closer the the 6970).
 
Nahh Im gonna stick with the GTX 570 because all I do is gaming usually. Th only time I edit is for a friend or something which is not very often and I'm sure the GTx 50 can run most high-res games today.
 
the 580 was for gaming more than the editing. Memory and processor are more important for editing.

580 is faster and way more cores. It will may for a lot longer than a 570.
