So I was wondering whether I should wait for it or build a
budget gaming CPU now.
My budget is around $750 - $850, excluding moniter and other
accessories.
By CPU I assume that you are refering to the whole PC and not
just the CPU chipset...
ur budget is really tight...
Imma gonna assume that you need to buy a casing and PSU too
(though with ur low budget, u shld reuse but not sure if ur current
PSU can support the ur new graphic card)
low low end graphic card, casing + PSU = half ur budget
gone
mid end graphic card only = half ur budget gone
I would suggest the GT520, a lower end model which can handle ur
needs.
try to see around if you can find an old I7-2600 becoz the
current i7-3770+mobo package = budget totally gone, or even not
enuff... and the 3770 is a very small improve over 2600 for gaming
needs (the 3770 is still better at stuff like photoshop than the
2600)
and u will best need a SSD...
twice ur budget is possible, but ur current is really
low...
