A couple of things:
1. I MUST use this TV, which means the graphics card needs to have a HDMI port, which it does.
2. Is it a good idea that I have a SSD AND an HDD?
3. Does this graphics card fit in my case? (I had a VERY hard time fitting my power supply into my case..)
4. Does everything else fit in the case?
Thanks!

Best solution

Answering your questions:
It is a good idea for an ssd for (os and program loads) and HDD for storage
YOur GPU is 10" long so it will fit in that full tower case
Everything will fit in that case - you can have 7 internal and 5 externals drives in that case
You do not have an operating system listed - go with windows 7 64 bit
That will be a real nice setup btw - good luck

Want to save money?

Get a cheaper...
-case. You don't need a full tower. Most mid-towers will be more than big enough for 1 or 2 GTX 670s (I am running one GTX 670 in a Cooler Master HAF 912 case - mid tower - fits just fine).
-motherboard. Get a cheaper motherboard like the ASrock Extreme4. Unless that motherboard you listed has some features you really want, that is.
-PSU. 500-550W is enough to run 1x 670, 750W is enough to run 2x 670.


Also, what about the same HDD with 2x the storage space for 5$ more? WD 500GB.

I know you're not asking to save money, but thought you maybe would :)
