I saw some of the parts I need on sale, and was wondering if I should just start buying some of them, I've been waiting to buy the part for 9 months now, and am starting to get annoyed, and to clarify I will only be buying the parts that arent inflated, which is basically everything except a gpu and memory.

memory isnt to Inflated if at all, so it wouldnt be an issue to purchase. it would be up to you if you want to buy them now, but personally id wait until im actually going to buy everything if you refuse to find a gpu at msrp or near msrp or overpay for one even if its not a 3000 Series or whatever you were Planning to buy As new parts can come out by time you buy your GPU, and then your pc will now be out of date as you are building it.

Well in terms of time, until 30 series cards get restocked or come back down in price

Then don't bother. You're better off just waiting and buying it all at once. You're probably looking at another year or so.

On the flip side, if you buy now, there is a high chance that what you bought will be a generation old by the time you get the gpu (if that is what the op is waiting on)
