Looks good, but the monitor seems rather expensive for what it is.

Would you happen to know or a better 27" monitor, I had a hard time picking one out.

The i5-4460 can deliver 90% of the performance as the 4590, so if there's savings to come along with it, go for it. But I'm in the US so I'm not sure how the pricing translates across the border.
