weight be damned, its the price of new lenses thats added grey hairs.
If you have to question the upgrade and don't understand the benefits I would suggest that you don't rush to upgrade.
I did and found that, yes it has a massive benefit in what you capture in FF but if you know how to use a camera you can get just as good images with your DX.
It's an expensive upgrade if its just a hobby (as I have found), I only bought FF lens so had only the body to upgrade.
I suggest you research and understand why you are upgrading and compare the differences.
Cost is a start, but look at the iso capability and loss of zoom etc.

And a quick lesson I learned is cheap glass is erm...cheap for a reason. My only regret is that i used to have a healthy bank balance!
manual focus, but superb lens optically
Been seriously thinking about upgrading my D90 to FF D600 and was wondering of those people who have done the similar thing had any regrets about spending the £1k+ and had issues with weight increase ?
good luck getting more than 70% of the lens performance due to missed focus though
slip the focus even just a small amount and be punished

i think i must have taken a blow to the head before i moved to FX as in the 2 months before i bought my D3 i bought a 35mm f/1.8 a 10.5 fisheye & a 17-55f/2.8 DX :bonk:
i dread to think how much i've spent last year
