I wouldn't upgrade anything tbh. If you are looking to upgrade, then how about a new keyboard/monitor (obviously depending on your current ones)? The only thing I can think of for upgrading your system would be another 7970 if you really wanted to.
 
Thats just about as good as it gets at this point, I wouldn't bother upgrading anything else... as LukieBoy said, another graphics card if you need it, but I'd say spend some on peripherals. Having a £110 keyboard is nice, as is more screen real-estate.
 
Updated could get 3 screens ford stuff I guess what screens are the same height AS 950d

Like I said I just wondered if it was a balanced system 3770 + 7970 etc

No bottlenecks there. If you really want to burn some money you could go crossfire with another 7970 but that's about it :)
