I was thinking to upgrading to Vista anyway, since it seems a lot more stable than it used to be, and DX10 and the future DX11 are not available on XP. I've only tried DBZ Budokai 3, Budokai Tenkaichi 3 and Persona 3, and I get about 40, 30, and 50-60 FPS respectively. How much further would DX10 improve on that?
My specs
Intel Core 2 Duo @ 3.16GHz
3.25 Gigs of ram (Max my XP allows, on Vista it'll probably be 4?)
Radeon HD4870 graphics card.
So will be show enough improvement with it (at least 20 FPS higher?)?

Sure it will be enough especially if you overclock your CPU.
About DX10. He will be faster for some games and can be slower.
Just tested: Persona 3 in title menu with DX9 i got 86-89fps, with DX10 47-51 fps.

Mmm, which difference exits between both Directx versions? (I'm considering a change to Vista/Seven might be good for me xD)

I running Persona 3 FES in DX10 ( Windows Vista Ultimate) mode and its slower then in DX9 mode for me.
In Grandia 3 DX 10 also slower on 2-3 fps, in Inuyasha DX 10 doesnt change anything at all.
