New Build $2000 Budget

[jbmaverick50]

I have done a couple of forums but I want to do one more and hopefully I get all of my questions answered. Im building this computer for animation and graphics design major and of course for gaming. The CPU I was looking at is Intel i7-3770k, EVGA GTX 670 FTW for graphics card. Also im looking at an ASUS P8H77-V LGA 1155 Intel H77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard. I am open for any changes and ideas to finish the build. I was thinking about getting dual 21" monitors but thought about 1 27" for now. 16 GB of ram and I would like 1 TB of interal hard drive and a nice SSD. Everything is coming from newegg.com and like in the thread I have a $2000 budget. I need to know if all other parts are compatible with each other because I would like to start the build as soon as possible. Please help me and please give me all the information I need. Different graphics card that may be better than the one I have. I want to have the best graphics and a bad ass computer that $2000 can buy. I also no matter what are going to get the NZXT Phantom case because it looks amazing.

You will need an IPS monitor
as for Graphic Cards AMD kills Nvidia in OpenGL and OpenCL, Photoshop and anyother program with CUDA plugin the clear choice is Nvidia.
