Is it worth upgrading from a square taper crankset?

My entry-level road bike with Claris came with an FSA square taper crankset and BB. I was wondering if it was worth upgrading it to the Claris crank which is Hollowtech II. From what I've read, it's lighter and stiffer than square taper and looks a hell of a lot better, too. Also, I could feel the frame flex on my bike when sprinting, which causes chain rub (my front derailleur is properly adjusted), and was wondering if switching to HTII would help with that. Thanks in advance.
