I have just finished a new build for uni. New everything except graphics card (using an old ati atm).

I was wondering should I go for ATI's latest card or wait a month or two longer for nvidia's new card?

I am thinking of waiting as I have my heart set on a BFG (reason: they did an oc2 8800GTX and to this day is a beast, running crysis, crysis warhead and far cry 2 on full as smooth as out).

However, I would value some other opinions. Thanks in advance.
 
Ahh right, thanks guys for all of the responses and feed back.

I start in a weeks time for uni. However, i have the remainder of my budget to spent on a GPU; so money is (for once) not an issue. I think I will wait until the end of October, if the nvidia cards are in sight I will get one. If not I think I will get a cheap 4870 or 5850 for the time being.

Thank you all so much for the replies, I apreciate them very much.
Until my next problem: "goodbye, happy gaming."
