Personally, I don't think going from a 9800GT to a GTS450 is worthwhile. There's honestly no need for DX11 right now.
If your going to upgrade, you need to go with at least the GTX460 or HD5770 (but ATI has new cards coming in a few weeks).
If you want a cheap CPU though, grab the E5400. Goes for like $70 new.
