retail copy of it contains "at launch" version of the game, usually 1.0 or so.
You install it with the cd and activation code inside the game box which adds it to steam library.
after that, Steam will check the game, determine what needs updating (Likely a lot) and download said updates.
you will save maybe 1GB at most out of I think 3 or 4gb.

alternately, you can just add the game with the code to steam and let steam download full game.
