Total: $845.5 (A bit less because I will get 50% off mwave shipping)

I live in Australia so stuff is more expensive plus I will be purchasing a GPU and additional case cooling fans in the near future.

Change your motherboard choice to ASUS, Gigabyte or ASRock.
Also I noted the PSU you selected does not seem to be 80 Plus certified, and 700W is far too much for your system.
Get a 500 to 550W one from Corsair. Try the CX500.

What exactly does it mean if the PSU is not 80 Plus certified?
