Its more powerful enough to warrant an upgrade. I've only been keeping half an eye on the GPU market, but what I can say is, the 750ti is pretty amazing when it comes to power consumption. At the prices in the UK, AMD is a better option, the 750ti sits between a 260X and a 265 on performance, so it depends a lot on what prices you can get the cards for in your region.
If you are not impressed with mantle, then it is a far better card than the 260X (power consumption is about 2/3), but the 265 is more powerful.

Similar performance to GTX 650 Ti Boost, but with reduced power consumption and temperatures.

Thanks for the feedback.
follow up question. Could I just open up my computer and switch out the cards with little hassle? Will it just be a pull out/put in procedure or will it be more complicated than that? Never done anything like this before.

Make sure you order the right model of the card based on your setup. If you have a 6-pin PCI-e power cable and enough space, you'd be better off with a version with better cooling and a PCI-e port such as http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814487028 (can't remember how to clicky, and I haven't reinstalled SG+ yet). If not, go for a more basic one, such as the stock model. Also make sure you pick the one with the right amount of RAM (1GB or 2GB).

I don't know a ton about computers but I've been considering upgrading my graphics. The Nvidia GTX 750 Ti looks pretty sick (and I like the price) and I'm wondering if it's a good choice. I currently have have an Nvidia GeForce GT 640. Is it worth upgrading?
