So my suggestion is if you want to remain in Medieval Fantasy, I won't recommend a change to GURPS.
That a good choice. But Dungeon Fantasy can done in GURPS and done well. I been doing it since 1988 when I switched my main fantasy campaign over. I have some notes on different aspects here http://home.earthlink.net/~wilderlands.

The Dungeon Fantasy pdfs are great because now I have a firm benchmark to set my stuff too. Monsters have always been a problem either too weak or too strong. Most of my adventures in the past have revolved around human or humanoid opponents.

The reason I even used 3.0 in 2000 a couple of times is that it was enough like GURPS to suit my GMinng and now I have all these shiny monsters and modules to play with.

But frankly I built so much homebrew stuff for my own game that it was just wasn't worth the hassle of the switch. Also I had issues with the power curve of 3.X after 10th level. In the end I returned to GURPS where I happily remain to this day.

Recently I ran a conversion of Blackguard's Revenge (Dungeon Crawl Classic #12). With GURPS 4th.
