It always pays to wait until you actually need it. If you want it now however, wait until ATi unveils their new cards, which should be very soon.ACE 1991 said:Hmmm.... I'm leaving for college next summer, and will be building myself a nice rig. (spending around $800-$1000) Will it really pay to wait until next June or so to buy this? From what I've been reading, software is playing major catchup with hardware, so the technology required for today's cutting edge games isn't really advancing.
As much as I love my WD6400, you can get a 1TB drive for just $10-$15, but if you don't need it then it's a good drive.Shouta said:So, got a new build. Anyone have any thoughts on it or perhaps oversights that I made?

I'd wait a week until ATI shows off new cards in case there is a slight price drop.
I'd also swap the Intel mobo as they usually don't have any overclocking options and a GB costs the same amount, again waiting on impressions on motherboards would be what I would do.
