What do you have now? If your current card doesn't play your games very well, go ahead and get one. The next crop of cards may or may not be significantly better than what's out now, driver issues notwithstanding. Surely current cards will drop in price shortly after the new cards are released though. It's up to you. I'd say if you've a Radeon 8500 or better (GF4 Ti4200+) to wait just a month or two for news, releases, conventions, etc.. If you want to get the best bang for the buck, forget the top of the line. Look at the Radeon 9700 Pro and GeForce FX5900 Non-ultra cards.
