Hey all.

I am due a big upgrade for my pc sometime within the next few months.
However I was thinking that instead of simply upgrading my cpu+ram+graphics card now to something like a AMD XP 3200 and 3200 ddr and probably something like a GeforceFX 5900xt, that it might be a better idea to waitfor a while, to say around January next year as the sales start.

Then I could probably get a few good deals on a new pci express capable mobo and graphics card to boot.

You think it a wise move to wait or what?
Or am I being to wishfull thinking like in my optimism about finding good prices for pci capable mobo and graphics card early next january??

I mean I no they are just starting to come to the shop shelves now, with the new 6800's and what not, but I have been thinkinbg that by january next years the new technology should be fairly well established, and deals should be possible to find.

What say you guys??

I would think so, I would defintealy wait to upgrade, if not later than january. I would do a whole new computer if I were you. Upgrade to an A64, new mobo, new memory, new PCI-E vid Card, etc.
