Default Would this be a waste?

I currently have a Saphire ATI Radeon HD 3870 512 MB, and I am looking for an upgrade.
I am hoping to get a XFX ATI Radeon HD 4870 1 GB for 170$ (http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product...82E16814150394), would I benefit from this card (computer specs in sig) or would it be a waste of 170$?
Also how much could I make off my current video card (on ebay or a similar site)? It is less than a year old, I got it in December (for 160$).

All prices are in canadian dollars.
