I am building a gaming pc, this PC will also use photo editing programs, recording, rendering ect.
I'm not too what CPU out of those in the tite to choose,

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Intel-Graphics-BX80646I54570-Ge...
The FX8320 has 8 cores and I know that the new consoles are using this too so more games will be supporting them and can also be overclocked. Also on the website gamedebate i compared them both and the Fx8320 outpreformed the 4570 on several games, but i've heard that the I5 is better? Which one should I choose for my needs?

Recording rendering drives me to believe the FX8320 is the right CPU for you.

It will also preform well for gaming (ultra maybe) with an r9 280x?

Yes it will especially if you overclock.

Of course it would, the r9 280x is fairly new and even has mantle support for bf4!

What about an R9-270x? I may be getting that GPU instead

270x is also a fine card, I would actually go in the middle and get a 770, I got mine for $280 or $300 and that's a card that'll eat games for a good long time.
