Soon I am planning to build a PC that I will mainly be using for gaming, browsing and homework. I live in and am buying parts from Australia. The budget is around $1500aud, ($1,100 usd) including the monitor. Here are the specs:

I will be playing at 1080p and hoping to play current games on ultra settings at no less than 40 fps minimum. I would be fine with playing at medium though in 5 years.
I plan to play a variety type of games like shooters, rpgs and strategy games
I know that I could of gone with the i5 4690k but that would of cost at least $100 for the cpu plus a decent cooler.
Obviously I won't be overclocking the cpu but I will moderately overclock the video card.
The reason I got one 8gb ram stick is so that I can buy another one once when I upgrade to 16gb.
I am not using an HDD but an SSHD. Apparently, these are much quicker than reqular HDDs but a bit slower than SDDs. But I will be able to save a lot of money and put everything on one hard drive.
I can also buy a Zotac Video card for about $440, including shipping and Batman Arkham Knight, Would you suggest I buy this instead?
I am not able to use ethernet since the PC will be in my room so I'll have to use wireless instead. My room is about 10-15m away from the router. Will the adapter be good enough? Keep in mind that I have about 0.4mb or download speed (Straya')
I was recommended by one of the staff in a store this pre-built PC that costs $2000.

Because of the video card I'm guessing that it's a rip-off. I'm hoping that gaming wise this build will deliver much better performance while saving $500 (including the monitor!). Would this be true?
