I'm quite happy with this parts list, however I would love some opinions/advice. (Will replace the Dark Rock Pro3 with the Pro4 once it becomes available here in Australia)

Thanks!

i took the liberty to edit your list a bit
CPU: Intel - Core i7-8700 3.2GHz 6-Core Processor ($414.50 @ Shopping Express)
CPU Cooler: be quiet! - Dark Rock Pro 3 67.8 CFM Fluid Dynamic Bearing CPU Cooler ($114.00)
Motherboard: ASRock - Z370 Pro4 ATX LGA1151 Motherboard ($159.00 @ Umart)
Memory: G.Skill - Trident Z 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3200 Memory ($259.00 @ Umart)
Storage: Crucial - MX500 500GB 2.5" Solid State Drive ($179.00 @ Shopping Express)
Video Card: Gigabyte - GeForce GTX 1060 6GB 6GB Xtreme Gaming Video Card ($442.00)
Case: Fractal Design - Meshify C White TG ATX Mid Tower Case ($147.00 @ Skycomp Technology)
Power Supply: Corsair - TXM Gold 550W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply ($105.00)
Case Fan: Noctua - NF-S12B redux-1200 PWM 59.1 CFM 120mm Fan ($20.00 @ PCCaseGear)
Monitor: Asus - VG248QE 24.0" 1920x1080 144Hz Monitor ($348.00 @ Shopping Express)
Total: $2187.50

i5 even overclocked is no match for i7
500GB of SSD is plenty for games and programs and much more convenient than HDD.
You can get a smaller cooler like the dark rock 2
don't use NF-S12 fans. you want to use NF-A12 or even better NF-F12 fans. they even come in black now XD
