Default Accel card upgrade worth it?

Hi,

I currently have a HD1 rig but have the opportunity to get an accel card for a great price. Im wondering, is it worth it, or should I invest in plug ins instead?

My hd1 rig works fine but occasionally (actually rarely) Ill run out of voices. I mainly use RTAS plugs but also have a few tdm.... Im looking to get into post production work and hear for this kind of work, extra accel cards are a lifesaver... Is this true? does it really make a giant difference?

Thanks

It was worth it for me. If it´s a great price as you say, I´d do it.
