1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc

I will be doing resource intensive things such as editing and rendering videos and gaming too.

2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?

$1,000, Yes.

3) Which country do you live in? If the U.S, please tell us the state and city if possible.

US, Arizona

4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc. The word "Everything" is not a valid answer. Please list out all the parts you'll need.

In all honesty, I'm not very computer literate... But I would like to have a setup I can modify as years go on and parts continue to advance....

5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.

None.

6) Will you be overclocking?

No

7) What is the max resolution of your monitor? What size is it?

Taking suggestions for gaming monitors...

8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?

The sooner, the better (tomorrow if I have everything ready)...

9) What features do you need in a motherboard? RAID? Firewire? Crossfire or SLI support? USB 3.0? SATA 6Gb/s? eSATA? Onboard video (as a backup or main GPU)? UEFI? etc.

?

10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license? If yes, what OS? Is it 32bit or 64bit?

32 Bit

And sorry, English is not my first language.

But thank you for all of your help!
 
So do you have a 32bit System Builders key or a 32bit retail key? And this is Windows 7 correct?

Also, 3 hours is not long enough to warrant a bump in this forum as six hours is the norm.

Seconded. In fact, in the FS forum, the [H] will not allow a user to bump up his own thread within five hours of his previous post unless another user replied to that last post.
 
What types of video rendering and/or editing will you do? What programs will you use?

What games do you play? At what level of visual quality?

Is the monitor part of your $1000 budget? Will you need anything else, like keyboard/mouse, speakers, an uninterruptible power supply, or a wireless adapter?
