So I can fit a gigabyte g1 gtx 970, an ASrock H97 pro4, and intel i7 4770 if I remove the HDD cage?

Well I've got 2x gigabyte gtx 970's in mine with a Asus Sabertooth Z97 an i7 4790k and a full custom loop you will have loads of room in fact your GPU will clear it with the cages in.

Does it matter if I remove the HDD cage in Fractal Define R5? I will use only one HDD, no SSD, and I want to fit a gigabyte g1 gtx 970, an ASrock H97 pro4, and intel i7 4770 in there.

It shouldn't matter as the drive cages are modular and can be removed completely.

You have a fractal define R5? Or another case?
