Hello and welcome to the forums
It's definitely worth it.
GTX 460 is much faster than 4850

However it is only a move up of one (for GTX 460 768MB) or two (1 GB version) levels on the THG hierarchy chart and they recommend not upgrading unless you are moving at least three levels.

Note that the performance of the 768MB version is almost on par with the 1 GB version and, since it has been selling at a much lower price lately, I have been rcommending it over the 1 GB:

I would recommend saving up a little longer to get the GTX 560 Ti.

or you can SLI 460, you can also think of getting a 5870.
