Are these parts good for someone who wants to record and make cinematics with Shaders? Is it a bit overpriced? What could I change too? http://pcpartpicker.com/user/Trigology/saved/1wyK

You could drop down to an 8320 if you want to save a little. This will play games way above minecraft.

its decent enough to do what you need and more + overkill is 3k+ on a custom pc... not including the monitor or tower

Not sure if you really need 16GB of Ram. 8GB can do the same. Would cutdown your price a bit.
