Hello, thank you in advance for any help and advice you can give me. I've been looking to purchase a gtx 760 - just 2gb, I don't plan to overclock, nothing fancy, I don't need a ton of power - and so I've been watching the prices of the cards over the past couple of months. For the most part they've been around $250, but now they're getting to be nearly $200. For example, I've been watching this evga card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
Is this something that I should jump on now, or would it be worth waiting until November? (I had read in other forums that some prices will actually increase during November/Black Friday/Cyber Monday so I'm not sure when would be the best time to buy)

Haha the 970's a biiit out of my price range. ;) 
If I can get lucky, I'd like to get a 760 a fair amount under $200 but I could live if I paid $200 for it.

The real question is do you think this card is worth $210 after rebate?

If so, jump on it before you miss the deal.

Your other option is to get something use from eBay or something. I just sold my 7970 for $130.

I think stock of these cards will go down and become harder to find. New Egg has the tenancy to up the price for a 'sale' so they can say it is '20 % off' or something. At least that is what I remember when I was waiting for price drops.
