Here's my build so far:

GPU in question is the Radeon 7950 3GB. I've heard generally good things about it, but how is this build going to perform with Adobe products specifically (such as Adobe PS CS5-CS6, Lightroom 4, Adobe After Effects, Premier, etc?) Will it be fairly capable with regards to 3d rendering in programs such as 3DS Max and Maya as well? It seemed like a good compromise, but I'd be up for suggestions for alternatives as well.

I've also read that Adobe programs are generally CPU intensive, so I'd be very interested on any thoughts on the i7-4770.

This is my first build, so any general tips with regards to this would be appreciated too.

Thanks for any help

yes, buy you linked to the "as yet to be released" CS CC which is also addressed on my link

In addition, this new version of Adobe Premiere CC will support OpenCL.

....... but you said you were using CS5-CS6 and I noted "CS6 or lower" ..... CS5 and 6 do not support Open CL
