I'm not sure if that card is worth it. nVidia has a much better chip out already, but only the high end one is out that is over 500$. But, if you wait a month or two, you could get a much better card than that for 430.
Alternatively you can go SLI or Crossfire for the same amount and for faster performance.
Even more alternativley, you can get a cheaper card that will still be enough today, and in the future buy another one like it (much cheaper than today) to greatly upgrade your graphics performance when you will need it.
Considering that you want to output to a HDTV, you are not considering lookin at resolutions higher than 1920x1080, for which a sub 300$ card currently is enough.
Are you considering an SSD as your Operating System disk? Because you should. - That would mean two HDDs, one ssd for the OS and another one for storage.
