I have these (60-80 fps)
Gtx 750 ti
I3 4170
I want to upgrade to these:
Gtx 950
I5 4440
Is it worth it? Also, how much of a difference will it make in fps?

I would say the 950 isn't worth the bother.
if you go to userbenchmark.com and enter your MB, or system name you can see all the CPUs and GPUs that have been run there, and a performance comparison of each upgrade. Run your system there, and then compare it to others.

A lot will depend on what PSU you have.

Upgrade to a next gen GPU something 7 or 5nm. Don't bother with the other components until you can afford to step up to a next generation cpu/mobo/ram. The very small gain isn't worth it unless you're paying like $20 for both new components that you can make back selling the other ones. I would say the effective value of your upgrade would be like $10. If it costs you more than that including your time, it's probably not worth it to you.
A modern gpu underclocked so it doesn't constantly bottleneck your cpu would be more worth it.
