And at what resolution are you playing at? If only at 1280x1024/1440x900, you can forget about seeing much of a performance increase. If at a relatively high resolution of 1920x1200/1080, then yes... the performance is very much noticeable.

gtx285 is the fastest single GPU on earth.
nothing wrong upgrading from 9800gtx+ (gts250)
and the gap between them is as huge as their prices.

9800GTX+ is GTS250.....GTS250 is rename version of 9800GTX+.....so mean you jump from GTS250 to GTX285 only....performance can be diffrences....but GTX300 is nearly release alreayd...wait GTX300 release ....BTW your GTS250 still can kickass on games...no need so fast change new GC yet.
