You need a SATA data cable (the one you linked) and a SATA power connector (the PSU should have one or you can get a Molex adapter). As far as I know, these DVD burners don't come with any cables.

And yep, the 7970 is the best at the price point. The VP-550 is also adequate.

It's OK, I really should have linked you. It's the pre-release of AMD's new drivers for their cards that will give you much better performance in Far Cry 3.

If you have any more questions, please don't hold back!

It depends on a bunch of factors. The size of the fans, the placement of the fans, the direction of their airflow, the setting they are at, the orientation of the case, the type of case, the type of hardware, etc. For instance, in my mATX build, I have one case fan, but it's a massive 180mm Silverstone Air penetrator that provides more than adequate cooling for my heatsink with two 140mm Phanteks fans and my 7950 with a dual-fan cooler. So one case fan is enough for me. People always think having more fans is better when in reality more fans can be completely pointless and just loud.

So I can't really help you without knowing what your setup is.

You could get by with one. I recommend plenty of cases with one fan when it's enough because that one fan can often do the job for the whole case. The NZXT Source 210 has one fan at the rear and the negative pressure it creates in the case gets the job done. The Fractal Core 1000 creates positive pressure with its one fan up front. Basically, you'll be fine leaving the two other fans off.
