A Few Questions
I have a question, when is the best time to build? I'm currently saving money, so I won't be buying real soon. Are there new processor's coming out? Video cards? When? I can wait a few months until the newer stuff comes out. I'm looking to build a gaming PC at around $1400-$1600 USD, and possibly a little higher. So, when is the best time to build?
Thanks in return.

the best time to build is when you have the money to spend.
there is always something new coming out and if you choose to wait for the new stuff, you will never end up building anything. and it is not always the best thing to be the newest and greatest top of the line, its more better to use the time proven material that works best for what you need. the leading edge is not the best place to be unless you have a unlimited supply of cash to throw away every year. |

I agree with bailey...build your new computer when you have the money.
New parts are always being introduced so if you keep waiting for the newest stuff you'll never build your computer. Cricket

If you are concerned about what newer processors etc will be out in a few months, you can hold off on choosing your Processor, Motherboard, Video Card, Power Supply, RAM and Case Untill you have the cash for them. Things you could go ahead and get first are Hard Drives, Optical Drives, Floppy Drive, Operating System, Monitor, Keyboard, Mouse, Game Controller, Printer and Speakers
