8GB (2 x 4GB, you need to be able to upgrade for video editing.) 1333 RAM $30
ASUS Xonar DS 7.1 $40
Antec BP550w PSU $60
Radeon 7770 $120
1 TB 7200RPM HDD - $80
Rosewill Challenger ATX Case $60
Puts you around $10 under budget. You won't even need to salvage your case or HDD.

an Intel Pentium is the better choice for gaming and cheaper(hard to believe, I know - they used to be the devils name), plus stock cooling will save money.

Uh, I wouldn't say broke. I'd say just for people who want a multimedia, not solely gaming experience. Maybe some decent amount of gaming.
