I know this is the life-long question in computers... buy now or wait. Usually im one to just buy the damn thing... but here's the deal. I can get a Geforce3 Ti200 for about $100 minus however much i can get for my Radeon LE. My LE has been able to play games fine, but I usually don't turn on every option. So should I go for the the Ti200 right now or wait for the GF4s to drive the prices even further down?

BTW - Buying the Ti would be a stretch on my budget.

when the geforce4 ti4billions come out, the 3 ti200's should fall in price right? I might wait to see if that happens. That's what I'm gonna do :)

Wait..Geforce 4 can only drop prices, plus ATI's 8500+/ultra/xt/whatever will be out soon that can only help prices as well.

I will get the gf3 ti200...overclock it, skip the gf4 and then get the NV30 after few months it come out :)
the gf4 is not much different from gf3 (I know gf4 it is faster than any gf3 now)...the NV30 is just what i'm waiting for.

Question: isn't the Geforce3 Ti supply petering out and a price drop around 15% a reflection of a policy to clear older inventory- like the Geforce 3 for instance.
