Best time to purchase GPU?

Hello all,

 

Quick question. Would it be more beneficial to wait until black friday to buy a GPU? Or should I wait for christmas sales? I plan on getting the Windforce 970 unless a similarly priced sexier card comes out.

 

Thanks!

After AMD makes its next move, nvidia may drop its prices and the outgoing 2xx series will reduce in price. Also try black friday.

When 390X come out.

After 390X came out.

 

What does this mean? Will 390X release lower the price of 900 series?

Competition. Nvidia still wants to draw customers towards them and away from them, even with the new 390 seriex.
