Buy Now or Wait?

[EarthboundHero]

So I'm getting about $215 this month, and want to buy a graphics card. I want to get the ASUS Direct CUII GTX 760. Do you think I should get this now or wait 'till the 960 comes out. I only have $230 at most. So does anyone know what pricing is going to be like? Thanks.

I will get the 960 waited a year for it

 

After the 960 launches,get the one which is the most money to performance value (if you plan on saving money)

The pricing will probably be around the $250-$260 region for the 960, if they release one.

hmmm, I want to say wait, but we dont know what the price and performance will be

R9 280

I've got a 550W power supply. Will that even be enough to drive a 280?

GTX960 is "expected" around Octoberish. Expected meaning that this is a likely sort of gap between the two releases. $215 sounds a little low given that the 970 is $350, I'd expect either $250 or $275 for the GTX960.

However this is all pure speculation until either there's a well sourced leak or the release itself

550W will run any single GPU setup you want and besides, the r9 280 is a 7950 which isn't a particularly power hungry card.

I would wait for the 960. I expect it to outperform the 760 by quite a bit!

[Swndlr]

dont buy the 760, wait for the rest of maxwell to come and then we talkin cash.

Okay, thanks everyone. I'll try to make myself hold out for the 960 release, but can't make any promises to myself.
