As the title says, when would be a good time to get a graphic card? Right now I'm looking at 7970 and R9 280X which are both around 300$. Would this price remain as it is for a long time, or it could be dropped in near future? (Sale Events such as Thanksgiving, Black Friday, game bundles, all that good stuff. Or after the release of game such as BF4)
Good time to buy graphic card?

If you are looking at the $300 price range, I would get a card right now. There are some Radeon 7970s for $270. I would go for those, as they are probably cheaper because of the 280x (even though they are identical)

I don't think so. The 280x is exactly the same as the 7970, so theres no reason to drop it. Over time they might simply disappear. At $270, its already over $20 under MSRP
Maybe I should Change my question. Would Thanksgiving & Black Friday Sales reduce the price of 7970 or R9 280x? I know this is sort of foresee the future type of question, but based on the past experience, would those thing drop in price on the events such as Thanksgiving and Black Friday?
