I will be keeping my monitors.

Purpose: I use my Computer for work and leisure All day and every day, I work from home as a Programmer and Day trader.

I would like the emphasis to be CPU/Ram/Storage, Ideally I would like a large capacity drive for just storing, and SSD(s) for OS/Work. (Minimum 1TB SSD, 4GB HDD), I would like to get away from Raid if possible (without loosing any performance compared to this setup).

Graphics should NOT be SLI/Crossfire. I see it as a waste since I don't play too many demanding games, but an upgrade from the 680 preferable but must be able to run 4x screens like the 680, (Currently: 2x DVI, 1x HDMI, 1xDP) however I'm quite happy to move away from the HDMI connector (to just DVI/DP).

I don't overclock, but having the option to do so would be nice. (if needed)

Budget: No Budget, I would like to get the best CPU/Ram/Motherboard combination with speed in mind (with in logical reason).

Will there be any point in upgrading yet or shall I wait until next year?
 
Thanks for the input,

I was looking at getting the Intel 750 1.2TB PCI-E SSD but I don't know if I would be able to use it to its full extent with this system any input on that? (not to mention it's currently out of stock.)
