Thoughts on upgrading GPU right now.

[Toadem]

I am just about to drop what for me will be a lot of cash and my first brand new GPU in a long time (I usually buy second hand due to lack of budget but for this kind of price I decided not to buy someone else's problems as has happened in the past).

Im looking at grabbing the Zotac 1070 Amp Extreme when they come back in to stock ( https://www.overclockers.co.uk/zota...ddr5-pci-express-graphics-card-gx-104-zt.html ) but recently with the new AMD Vega unveil and rumours of the Nvidea 20 series being released in a few months its got me wondering if I would be best to sit a little while longer before jumping in.

Whats everyone else's thoughts on this, and yes I fully understand the speed new products come on the market you just have to jump in sometimes or you would wait forever but would it be worth waiting this time.

What do you currently have?

I currently have a temperamental MSI gtx 760 that likes to blue screen once in a while but was thinking I might be better to hold off a little bit longer.

Just get what you need now. NO point waiting as theres always something round the corner isnt there! Ive just upgraded from a Palit 1080 to a Palit 1080ti and even I feel the difference there so you will get a very nice boost in power. I would recommend the Palit 1080/1080ti to anyone as well as its the quietest card Ive ever owned by a mile and the fans dont even kick in until it hits 60 degrees.Its also one of the cheapest in the 10 series cards as a nice little bonus as well.
