With video cards and ram at all time high this will be a challange. A 4k capable card will eat half your budget. Even if a 4k card is not necessary at the moment, the prices are beyond ridiculous right now.

That budget is not high enough for 4K gaming he should go for 2K instead.
ALL the GTX 1080ti video cards that are in the 6/700 buck area are out of stock and their way overpriced including the one listed above.

Here's a build Parts list It's a little over the budget, but it includes nearly everything you need.

CPU - Ryzen 5 1600
Motherboard - MSI b350 pc mate atx
Ram - 16 GB ddr4 2400
Storage - 525 gb m.2 ssd + 1 TB blue drive
GPU - GTX 1080 ti
Case - Cooler master masterbox lite RGB
PSU - 650w 80+ gold full modular

P.S. Wait until gpu prices go back down, right now ram and gpu are overpriced. You can also remove the ssd and save £125.

The shortage hasn't affected the UK and EU markets yet. Doesn't mean they're out of the woods entirely but so far there, the prices haven't been as affected as they are in North America.

The card shortage has also hit their if you look at the above build that 1080ti looks good in price but also out of stock everywhere.
