Looking into buying a Haswell I-7 4770k CPU. I was wondering I know it's fairly new, but should there be any type of reduction in price anytime soon or should I just suck it up and buy it now?
 
Solution
It won't drop for an year. Even when the new line of CPU come, Haswell won't drop significantly. So if you want to upgrade, then upgrade. In computer tech there is always something better on the horizon, but if you always wait for that "better" we all would have been stuck with i386-es and Pentiums.
