For 40k this is the best rig-

[desiibond]

yes. I think a core i5 2400 does much better for AV editing. Replace HD6850 in thetechfreak's config with one of these:

ATI FirePro V4800
NVIDIA Quadro FX 380

desiibond, for video editing I don't think workstation cards are required, I think they are required for Rendering related work like working in 3D studio max, Maya etc.
A standard gaming card will be sufficent for standard video editing. I will suggest a GTX 460 1 GB card as CUDA is little matured over AMD APP.

I need 1TB which i mentioned.
anyway i will update that.

Thanks everyone for replying and made it easy for me.
Thank you.

Yeah Go with i5 if your budget is 40K. No Point going AMD in that Budget.
