Take a look.
If you order all of this at the same time... Newegg just boxes most of it together and sends it all together as just one or two packages...
Being that you're ordering a monitor and case though... I'd expect 3-4 packages.
I guarantee you they won't all come separately though, Newegg is good about shipping orders together.
Have you ordered from Newegg before?
Generally you get stuff from them in 3 shipping days, even if it comes from Texas or California.
They're awesome.
Being that this costs less than what you picked out a minute ago, and offers pretty much all the same things + more...
Maybe you should consider throwing in that Sunbeam cooler and the 1366 retention bracket for overclocking.
Also, remember to buy an operating system >;p
But yeah, if I were you, I would definitely pick this build over the one you were going to get
?
bleh...
ALSO if you're mostly just using photoshop, you might want to consider a 5770, so you could have the potential to do some serious gaming if you ever decide to.
:]
It's about the same price as the workstation card I have picked out and will deliver equal or potentially even better performance in rendering and design applications.
I need to look more into how mainstream graphics cards compare to workstation cards...
I'll give a better response in an edit in a few minutes...
OK

I recommend you buy that over the FirePro 37XX series cards.
The 5770 WILL outperform those workstation cards in anything.
The 5770 has a higher bandwidth usage, higher pixel fillrate, higher texture fillrate, higher clock and memory speed, 1Gb of GDDR5 memory on a 128 bus width (Versus the 3750's 256Mb of GDDR3 on a 128 bus width), more SP's, probably has lower power draw as it's on 40nm versus the 3750's 55nm, AND the 5770 has the potential to be used for crossfire, supports Eyefinity, and overall just would probably kick the crap out of those two workstation cards in gaming, rendering, graphics, CAD, Photoshop, etc...
It's worth it.
**EDIT**
Here's a direct comparison of those workstation cards to the 5770.
The 5770 is the best buy here, and even a 5750 would outperform those workstation cards... And the cheapest 5750 can be had for $120-130
So I rest my case, there's no reason for you to buy a workstation card.
