It would be a good upgrade.

Many people say ATI has better image quality, but imho, I couldn't tell the difference. Performance wise, the x1900GT is ~2x faster than a 6800GS, depending on the game.

Here are benchmarks in Oblivion:

(compare the x1900GT to the 7600GT, it is the closest card to your 6800GS. But keep in mind that the 7600GT is slightly faster than the 6800GS)

Here are some more benchmarks:

Depending on the game, the x1900GT and the 7900GT switch performance leads.

Thanks

That is a relief. All what i read say that x1900gt is way inferior to 7900 gt. That scared me .

Thanks again
