New card, should I just wait a few weeks?

I'm after a card for a new 6600k build I have pending, everything is ready but I've held off buying a card.

It'll only be used once in a while for gaming and I'll only ever be running at 1080p so I'd pretty much settled on a GTX 970.

I know new architectures are due very soon, so should I hold out and pick a 970 up second hand, or new, presuming the prices will drop?
 
I'd discounted the ATI cards because I've been told Project Cars doesn't perform well with them at all?
 
Will look into ATI options as well then, not wanting to spend a fortune as I still do most of my gaming on the XB1 (probably £200 tops at this point)

The Pound will return to some sort of value & with the RX 480 coming out it will perform better than the other choices at the price point or force some of them lower

Little bit of patience will be rewarded

Someone being optimistic about the pound! Just reading up on the 480, looks like it's worth the wait. I can last a few weeks without, for once it seems like I'm benefiting from timing my build right :)
