Are these PC parts good enough for my needs?

Hey, here are the specs of my planned PC, totaling at £1,282.

Specs:
Intel Core i7 7700
GTX 1080 8GB
Gigabyte H110M-S2H Motherboard
8gb DDR4 2133mhz Ram
Corsair CX600 80 Plus Bronze Certified 600w Power Supply
240gb SSD Solid State Drive

I am really not an expert when it comes to PCs, but I am an avid gamer and for me the PC I am looking to buy would ideally be able to run flagship games at 1080p on ultra settings and at above 60fps, as I would be using this PC to record and edit videos with. And whilst I would be recording at 60fps, a lot of the time recording software does hamper performance a little so it would need to exceed this frame rate normally as a general rule of thumb. In addition I would use this PC for editing & rendering videos, so it would need to be efficient at doing that. For this sort of price (£1.3k) I am really expecting a PC that will breeze through the newest games on ultra settings 1080p. Would this PC be able to do that?

Thanks a lot for the help, as I said I'm really not an expert when it comes to PCs.
 
It's nice but there are a few things you really need:

1) 16 GB RAM
2) a B250/H270 mainboard
3) a way better quality PSU. The CX600 is the cheapest unit that won't burn your house down. But you'd like something better. Like the Corsair CXM550, a Super Flower unit with 550W or a Seasonic G, EVGA GS/G2/G3 or Antec Edge or XFX TS

Thanks for the reply!
Yeah I think I'll probably try and get 16gb of ram for my rig. Would a "XFX 600W 80+ Bronze Rated Power Supply" be better than the one I stated before?

Aha okay thanks for the input, ill look for a more reputable power supply. I reviewed the specs a bit and decided to get a i7 6600 rather than the i7 7700 and then get 16GB of DDR4 RAM, as well as getting the MSI H110M PRO VH Motherboard. I would keep all the other parts the same other than the PSU. Is the MSI h110M a suitable motherboard would you say?
