3:1TB 8GB-NAND, 64MB CACHE, SERIAL ATA/600, 3.5INCH (os on it, it will become storage,page filing)

As for PCpartpicker the pricing is much higher than current market cost on most parts I've picked.

this build is running me right around $2000-2100, as for the parts I'm taking out i will put them into another machine for my brother.

Personal preference: Swap out getting to 16GB of RAM and get better monitors.  Not sure what the selection is like in NZ but I am sure you can get something that at least looks better.  If you would invest so much into a system, invest a similar ratio into peripherals.  But other than that, super awesome build!

I have a 32GB kit that's 4x 8GB sticks coming, 1866hz cl9 kit from hyperX. the other machine had a total of 24GB of ram. As for the monitors I'm not looking for 4k or anything beyond 1920x1080 for awhile so the $200-$300 per monitor is fine. as long as it meets my refresh and size preferences.
