my budget is around £600 and it will be used for gaming, and i want an 8 core processor for video and graphics editing for when i go to collage in 4 months
 
Drop the motherboard to something lower like a p8 in the 990FX line. That will free up money you can use for your graphics as that one sucks. You want no lower than a HD6770. A 6870 is about the lowest you want to game on regular. Otherwise nothing stood out to me.
 
But if I drop the motherboard I will have to replace it sooner as upgrades could not fit in a cheaper motherboard so it will not last as long Upgrade wise but thanks that's the only reason why I spent more on a motherboard but thanks for the advice and where could I purchase your recommendations

You should buy the parts from Novatech or Dabs or Overclockers UK. I'm in the UK and I buy from Novatech, great service and decent prices.

As for a power supply, for a 6870 a Corsair CX 600 would be good. The 6870 is a great card incidentally. I think you should spend less on the case though and get something like a Carbide 300R and then throw more money into the graphics card. You could get something like a 7850 or a 7870 if you spent less on your case.
 
 
So your staying with your original motherboard? You'll need at least the 600 watt corsair psu I linked you to.
