Worth Waiting for new AMD GPU'S for BF4 instead of going SLI?

Sup guys,

 

I've been looking over a few recent threads about BF4 GPU requirements and I was wondering, Is it worth waiting for the new AMD GPUS and and selling my current MSI GTX 660TI and putting money towards a 9000 series AMD card rather than spending £200 and going SLI on my 660TI, Will there be an awesome never settle bundle with the new AMD cards.

 

Also when are the new AMD cards set to release, Just so I can make up my mind and get ready for it before BF4

 

Thanks as always guys :)

The 660 ti should do just fine, BF4 ain't that better looking than BF3. So if you get good fps with your 660 ti, don't buy anything else, just wait for BF4 to come out and see how it performs. Then you can think about getting something new as the AMD GPU's have come out by then.

Just sit it out with your current card until bf4 , purchase new seris amd cards if you think your lacking performance (doubt it you will).

By the time it comes around you may have more money + what are you going to use now if you sell your 660ti ???

Think it will be late September/ early October when there cards get released

Nobody can tell you that before the new Radeon series and BF4 come out. Stay on your current GPU until then.

the HD 9xxx series is supposedly releasing alongside BF4 in october. Also theres rumors about Battlefield 4 being included in the new never settle bundle. So i'd say wait and save up for a HD 9xxx

Wait for the next Radeon Series, that way there is a price war again and you can save some money, Nvidia and AMD always try to oust the other player by playing the price game.
