Should I wait for the 800 series?

[Dazza_the_Dragon]

Hey guys, Dorito King here.
I'm just caught in a predicament, I have my build that I am planning on going with and I am not a very patient person but the 800 series is coming in the next few weeks/months and I need to reassurance on what I should do? Should I A. Buy my build that I currently have made (Not happy on the colour scheme/parts that much), B. Wait out the long painful weeks of patiently praying for the 800 series to come and the colour scheme and parts list I want (Green/Black Classic Nvidia) or C. Didn't actually think of a C but scrap both ideas and go with something that you guys think? Also with the build I have, I am planning swap out the i5 4690k for some sort of i7 as I am going to be doing recording, rendering/graphics design, could you recommend an i7? I'll provide a link to my current build below.

nope, its never worth waiting unless its 2 weeks, technology moves to fast to wait for something.

What's your current rig? (your profile didn't help much)

[deviant88]

Yes wait for it it gets released this year.

 

EDIT: GPU Wise its always worth the wait, you can find everything else just as good now, ram/cpu's/ssd's doesnt matter this gen or next, but GPU matters until we get reviews of official cards we have no idea what you might miss on.But then im impatient person too prolly most impatient,but i learned in years of building pc's if its around the corner wait for it then upgrade.Its better to wait rather than regret purchase

Just wait for Gamescom in a few days, if nothing is revealed then just get a 290 or 780.

Didn't even know it was on! I assume Nvidia will be coming but thanks for the comment.

 

Your current rig is fine. Save your money and wait a year or two before considering upgrading anything.

Thanks for your reply as well slightly distorted train!

hardware doesnt get revealed at gamescom (except consoles)

Oh, I thought you posted the build you want to switch to, nvm.

 

In that case I'd wait for a 800.

Oh sorry for the misleading information, thanks anyway

Oh that's unfortunate.

I'd wait for the sole reason of prices dropping on the 780 ti. That's what I'm doing, I can assure you that nothing will wow you and pretty much the first cards will either match or be lower performance than the 780 Ti. So get that when it crashes in price after the 800 release
