So A friend of mine wants to build a nice Gaming pc. So me and another friend came up with the best build. http://pcpartpicker.com/user/liquidn2/saved/vqBTwP

 

Now he's decided to see if playing the waiting game for the next gen parts would be a good idea. For Devil's canyon and the next Nvidia cards. Is it reasonable to start waiting? Or just buy now and upgrade later

Waiting a couple of weeks for the 4690k and 4790k makes sense right now. But in general waiting doesn't really make sense as there is always a new generation of something about to be released.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.
