So I ordered the "half" of my first computer build which is supposed to be my xmas present but there were some sales so I bought most of the parts. It's everthing except for the graphics card and monitor. I'm going to buy a GTX 970 but I don't know when I should buy it. I should have an NCIX $20 giftcard coming in the mail for being a new customer so I want to order from them.

1. Will there be any xmas or black friday/cyber monday sales that are signicant? Like $15-30?

2. Is it likely they will keep going out of stock until xmas because of the demand?

3. Should I just order it with the gift card when its back in stock?

And

4. Is the price likely to jump higher than $350 unless AMD comes out with their competition?

Thank you for your help :)  I cant wait to go from my ASUS N61-JQ laptop which I got for xmas almost 4 years ago to a brand spankin' new custom built gaming pc and 1440p QNIX monitor (which I will need to buy) :p

I'm expecting discounts on 700 series from nVIDIA while no or may be very few discounts on 900 series. Plus demand is high for these cards, it may be possible that they run out of stock at that time. Also, 970 is the best card in price over performance ratio. Why wait?

MHO.
