Can you reuse your case, psu and dvd?
Photoshop responds to large amounts of ram.
a 16gb kit of 2 x 8gb will be about $70.
A 3570K will be about $220. ($190 if you can walk in to a microcenter)
A Z77 motherboard will be $150 or so. Pick your favorite brand.
Your current graphics card is very good. No change needed there.
I would definitely target a SSD. It will make everything you do feel so much quicker.
Look for at least 120gb. Your budget will permit 180gb, or even 240gb. Price should be <$1 per gb.
Intel 330 or Samsung 830 are currently the best for reliability, and they seem to be on sale frequently now. Keep a lookout.
If you want to replace your case, what do you value in a case?
I happen to like small size cases and quiet ones.
Others like windows, "bling" and large sizes.
I think you will have extra funds left over.
I suggest you use some for a second monitor.
The improvement in convenience is wonderful.
Post a list of what you are considering, along with links as a starting point.
I think I'll wait until my salary for this month paid
and I'll get $200 US more..
so, my budget became $900 US
I sell my old PC for get an extra money
so I will need PSU, dvd, case
I've already have monitor and others, except case and components inside
i'm not OC, so I think I'll get i7 3770
confuse about motherboard
ASUS P8H77-V LE LGA 1155

or this
ASRock H77 Pro4/MVP LGA 1155 Intel H77
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157302
people say ASRock PCB is thin. so, is that matters? will the PCB expand because of heat? which one should I'll take? Asus or Asrock? prefer ATX form. or you have another suggestion?

OCZ Vertex-3 120Gb SATA III SSD SSD
OCZ Vertex-4 128Gb SATA III SSD SSD

I don't know which one is better. so, maybe you can help me to choose
PSU:
Cooler Master Silent Pro Gold 800W
Cooler Master Silent pro Modular 2 850W New Bronze
Silverstone 850W SST-ST85F-E
I don't know how to calculate how much power that I need, but my friend said, if I take core i7, at least I must take 750W... is this number of power (750W) ok? is 850W to much? having plan to add more case fan
for case I'll take: Cooler Master HAF 912 Combat. is this case big enough for the PSU? I'll change original processor fan, maybe with:
