Graphics Card Help

[mathmeister]

I've been planning on building a PC this month for a very long time. I was thinking the GTX 1070 or RX or R9 490 (idek anymore) as that's always been my price point for GPUs. But I'm all for saving money and if something like the RX 480 gives the performance I need at 1440p or VR later on, I might just go with that. 

 

My question is which GPU should I go with for my needs (1440p 60 fps gaming) or if I should get an older card for the discount when the new ones release?

We don't know what performance the new AMD card will bring compared to the GTX 1070, so hard to say right now.

i heard the gtx 1070 is great and if the gtx 980 ti was able to play 1440p 60fps then the gtx 1070 will do it just fine also i would wait  since we know next to nothing on the amd graphic cards

wait for benchmarks of the RX 4xx card before deciding, also you can get 2 RX 480s for just over the price of the 1070 so im thinking AMD is going to be some insane value this time around

I would say get the 1070 but wait until we know more about the AMD cards.
