• Start a Build in a month, or wait for New gen CPU and GPUs?

Hello I am planning to build a gaming/recording/rendering PC build for around ~$1200-1300. Currently I have around $800, which I should have the other cash in a month or so (Money from my birthday, job, etc). But should I start my build as soon as I get all the cash, or should I wait for Haswell CPU and the 700 or 8000 series cards? Would it be worth waiting however many months for them to come out (I wouldn't mind waiting for better performance) or should I just build as soon as I get the cash? Also this would be the build if I were to do it as soon as I get the cash [img]http://puu.sh/2CEPw.png[/img]
I'm personally waiting on Haswell, it's only like a month and a half out. Even if you don't buy Haswell, I'd be willing to bet Ivy Bridge prices will drop a bit when it does launch.
I think you should wait until Intels Haswell and Nvidias 700 series, they'll probably have better price/performance ratios.
i'd wait for haswell as it'll require another socket type etc.
