It is worth it depending on what kind of card you currently have.  If
you have a 4meg Matrox Millennium or something it may not be worth it
to swap it out, but if you have a cheaper card I'd say go for it.  If
you have any specific questions let me know.

In a word Yes! Especially ICR2

YES! I have a Dell P133 with 48 MB of memory and a 2MB video card. With
everything on except for asphalt,people and infield,7 up front and 2 in
the rear, I was only able to run about 15 fps. The only way I was able
to race was to have just a few things on, car texture, skid marks, and
objects without detail. With this I was running at 23 fps. I got the
screamin 3D yesterday and I have everything turned on, even asphalt and
I'm running at 29-30 fps! It's very smooth and allows greater control of
my car, especially running the high groove and passing on the outside.
Martinsville is still tough on the frame rate, I have to turn a few
things off, but it definitely runs better. Watkins Glens looks
beautiful, as does C***te, especially at night. I'm really glad I
made the purchase.
Hope this helps.
