Hello, I really am having trouble finding the parts for a custom PC build I have a budget of £600 and I would like the PC to run every game in 1080p with no lag and preferably the Cooler Master Storm Enforcer case I am planning on getting Windows 8 for it and the parts to be from http://www.cclonline.com/. Thanks in advance :)

Graphics Card - MSI Nvidia GeForce GTX760 Graphics Card 2GB GDDR5 Factory Superclocked

PSU - Corsair CX500 Builder Series 500 Watt ATX PS/2 Power Supply Unit

Hard Disk - Western Digital Green 1TB SATA III 6 Gbps 64MB 3.5 inch Hard Drive (Internal)

Case - Cooler Master CM Storm Enforcer Chassis with Side Window (Black)

------------
Total - £598

I am sorry I could not parse links as it was not allowing me to.
However all the stuff is from your given website and totals exactly for that amount.

It would be a very powerful gaming rig for those specifications.

For RAM go with memory in pairs and not a single module. Like 8GB kit (2 x 4GB), if you have enough budget then target atleast 16GB ( 2 x 8GB).

Personally, I think Haswell series processors are much better and you may wanna try the latest Z87 chipset motherboards which are great and have enough headroom overclocking etc. If I were you i'd try getting a "K" model cpu like i7-4770k with Z87 Gigabyte or Asus motherboard, along with 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD, GTX760 GPU, CM EVO CPU cooler etc.

Try getting any of the memory with the following part numbers:
G.Skill TridentX F3-1866C8D-16GTX
GSkill RipJaws F3-14900CL10D-16GBXL
Kingston HyperX KHX18C10AT3K2/16X.
Corsair Vengeance CMZ16GX3M2A1866C10R.
Or try getting ValueRAM you can refer this site or crucial to find the right specs and get it from the above link you.

I wonder how can i7 4770K CPU, Z87 Motherboard, 16 GB Dual Channel Memory, 256 GB SSD be available for for £600?

That is not possible otherwise I would have gone for Intel's way too. I also did not included Dual Channel memory on purpose because the current build is on the verge of exceeding his budget and I would have to cut out on other important stuff to make room for better RAM.

Things in UK are more expensive than those in USA.
