I am looking to upgrade my CPU, if you recommend an Intel I will need a new motherboard but that isn't a problem. I am currently running the latest AMD socket
Also needing to update my GPU anything on the high end of either company!
I will also need new RAM I'm thinking 16GB for bid editing
I am going to be using both for heavy gaming and video editing.
I am in the UK
Nothing else is required

Something to consider:

With your budget, if you're really going to be doing heavy video editing, Here's cpu/motherboard + gpu upgrade to consider.

PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant

CPU: Intel Core i7-4790K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor (£227.94 @ Aria PC)
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler (£24.25 @ Scan.co.uk)
Motherboard: ASRock Z97 EXTREME4 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard (£104.65 @ More Computers)
Video Card: Sapphire Radeon R9 290 4GB Tri-X Video Card (£283.14 @ Aria PC)
Total: £639.98

I'd suggest a fx 8320 + gigabyte 970 ud3p + gtx 780Ti or r9 290x tri-x/vapor-x/windforce.

unless we know what you have now, we won't know if your current ram will work, or if what we are suggesting is worth the upgrade.
