How much improvement should I expect?

The system I'm using now is pretty solid, 2.66 Ghz processor, 3Gb ram, but I've felt for a while the video card that came with it A gForce 7300LE has been limiting things. STO runs fine most of the time but there are area where framerate will slow (the first breen mission) To turning into an almost literal slideshow (one particular klingon mission)

I picked up a GForce GT 440 and will plug it in a little later. With 1Gb of ram built in and more horsepower, I'm hoping to see some real improvement. I will, right?

    Yes, I have a similar setup and when Iwent from a Nvidia GT7950 to a GTX260 (and upped the settings, turned on amdiant light and shdows; it was noticable. :) Since a 7300LE is below spec; you should see a very noticable difference.

    Any new VGC should show great improvement.
