The 3770K will be more than enough. I do all of that with an i5 3570K and it has no problem keeping up.
P8Z77-V is good, so is the P8Z77-V Pro. The Pro has a slightly upgraded power delivery system but unless you're overclocking the vanilla one will be fine.
SATA 3 definitely. OS and Games should go on 1 SSD, and all your other stuff (music/movies/documents) on a larger HDD. If you can fit everything on a 128GB (i do) then that is the cheaper route, otherwise 256GB drives are pretty affordable as well. Samsung's 840 is a great drive and so are the Crucial M series.
Cases are more personal preference. Just get one with good cooling. Also make sure to get an upgraded cooler for your CPU. The Intel coolers these days are just pathetic.
New GPU's will probaby come out late Q1. If you can wait then do it, if not get a GTX 670.
But having more space on your SSD does make it faster, so why not get a bigger one?
Your graphic card is not very powerful, especially compared to your CPU and RAM, the gtx650 is definitely not what you want. Get at least a 660ti if you want a mid/high level graphic card
2 x 4GB is ok, you can expand in the future. the CPU is ok too.
