The unavailability of the RX-480 and GTX-1060 is starting to tick me off. With a $230 option for a GTX-970 and a $290 option for a GTX-980 on the EVGA site at the moment, is it really worth waiting for these newer cards to be available? I am gaming on a reference Zotac GTX-760 2G card at 1920x1200, and would like to upgrade. But I have to wonder at what price point is buying last year's tech a better deal? Playing through FO3 currently and I can max it out just fine with my system, so I am not in a hurry, but watching prices fall on Maxwell has got me thinking about where the value proposition is. I also do distributed computing projects like FAH and BOINC as well so the power requirements is a factor in my thinking, but I can't remember a so called launch when you really can't buy the new cards. And cards I would have loved to have a year ago are now much cheaper.
