Mine is more pro!

Manufacturer:
Me! (or well, to be more correct, my german neighbour )
Processor:
Intel Core i7 920
Memory:
6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz (worth overclocking four Mhz? xD)
Harddrive:
620 GB+250GB
Video Card:
GeForce 9800GTX+ <- To be replaced if BF:BC2 and DX11 meets expectations, otherwise awesome
Monitor:
Samsung SyncMaster 931BW 19"<- May or may not be replaced, depending on whether I'll keep being satisfied with my dear 1440x900 res on most games
Speaker/Headphones:
Logitech 2.1 system (can't remember the exact model)/Steel Series 4H
Keyboard:
Saitek Eclipse <- Awesome keyboard, but it's taken it's toll, may or may not be replaced with my spare wireless Logitech keyboard.
Mouse:
Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer 3.0
Mouse Surface:
SteelSeries Qck+
Operating System:
Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit <- Might replace this with Windows 7, depends on what DX11 brings to the table
Motherboard:
Asus P6T Deluxe
Computer Case:
Cooler Master CM620 (also a good home for rodents and insects trying to keep warm! lol)

Too bad the user of this rig ain't that pro...

Enough with the e-penis comparisons though and back on topic:

Yeah, I think that card is a good upgrade. Personally I'd wait for nVidias DX11 cards this spring, but I'm kind of a fanboy so I guess the 5770 should be good for you

The reason I could afford such an awesome rig is because I've worked so much I had no time to polish my gamer skills, thus being unable to aim straight xD

Yes. Yes, it is. The performance upgrade from doing so would be minimal at best but, come on, saying you have 6 gig of DDR3 @ 1337MHz? Just being able to say that alone is reason enough.

As for that gfx card, French...? Do want.
