New card GeForce 8600 GT

Old card GeForce 7900 GS (PCI-E)

 

I know it won't blow anyone away, but is this DX10 card an incremental step up in performance from my DX9 card?

I would stay where you're at. If you want to upgrade I would go with the 8800Gt or better. Keep in mind though your computer is only as fast as its slowest part. you can have the fastest and best GPU but if the CPU ect can't keep up its worthless
