Any point in replacing my Asus EAH5870 GPU?

I purchased my EAH5870 video card about two years ago and generally I've been very happy with it. My current computer is built around a i7 920@3,8 GHz on an Asus P6T Deluxe mobo with 6 GB Corsair dominator RAM but I figured I'd join the Sandybridge bandwagon so I have ordered an i5 2500K with Asus P8Z68-V Intel Z68, Corsair Vengeance 8 GB RAM and some other stuff.What difference can I expect if I purchase a more modern video card? I'm not considering a high end card but possible a Nvidia 560Ti of some brand, most likely Asus.My gut feeling is to stay with the 5870 since I'm happy with it, it was a high performing card when it entered the market and we have our axiom that "MSFS is more CPU than GPU dependant". The longer I stick with it, the further the prices have fallen on the ones I'm considering now...
