Case+PSU hardly change and or get outdated.

Same for storage drives.

GFX card I would do last.

If you can get things cheaper no-one can blame you but obvoiusly a bit of caution should come with secondhand parts, even if it is your friend.

You may get a few items cheaper in the Black friday sale or Christmas sales, but these aselect products and don't normally cover a whole range..

Things don't get cheaper after christmas either. GPU's might whena new range (the AMD 3XX's) is released but other than that the prices are pretty similar..

At the end of the day, if you have the money, go for it now..

All in all, if you wait til each items is on an offer, you'd of saved maybe only 10% but it will take a good 6-8 months.

As stulid said. Go for that deal and if you're buying in parts leave the GPUs til last.
