Hi

 

Just wondering if its a good idea to shop for parts on blackfriday (noob here). I am wondering because on my last thread (http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/482672-surge-protector-and-where-to-put-your-pc/#entry6475781) someone said this : 

 

.......

3. It doesn't take a lot to power a 1080p screen with ultra settings on the newest titles. You don't need a $340 gtx 970 to power a 1080p screen. I say wait for a gtx 960 Black Friday deal of $150 and you'll be golden.

 
With that said, where are the deals? Are they worth it? And I will be planning to build a gaming pc with arround 900$ US but I live in Canada.
 
 
Not asking for full builds just for cheap parts on blackfriday.
 
Thanks

Only Black Friday will tell.  Typically, GPU's don't go on sale as much.
