What the question says. There is a personal reason for which I will be buying during August and September. Will, if any, of these become cheaper. If so which ones, and a rough estimate would be GREATLY appreciated. :D

P.S. I'm open to any suggestions to the build, but would wish for this not to become a parts recommendation list. AND LEAVE YOUR NVIDIA VS. AMD SHIT AT HOME :fou: . Please. :pfff:

Hard to say, sometimes sales happen for no reason, other times they correlate with holidays or events. At that time of year I'm thinking back to school might play a part in it. I wouldn't hold my breath for intel cpu's to drop in price just because something new is being released. This past holiday season around black fri, the new 4690k was actually on sale for less than the older 4670k that it replaced. Most of the time intel doesn't drop prices, not like the way you see video cards lower their prices when new models come out and take their place. If you watch pricing indexes for intel, the price either goes up or drops around $5-10 from the release price and then tends to stay there. Monitors are another thing that may drop in price...

Alfred a few things are dropping this year that are going to change pc parts prices a lot at the end of the year.
intel one has an issue that it dropping two new cpu at the same time for the desktop. the brodwell cpu on 1150 mb. the tic to haswell. and the skylake cpu the 1151 cpu that the replacement to haswell. (toc). intel had issues getting there 14mm cpu defect rate down and brodwell was delayed a long time. some at point this year all three are going to be on sale. vendors trying to sell off there older haswell....and then with skylake if it a lot faster and it selling at the same time as brodwell..it going to cause people not to buy brodwelll and intel going to have to do a fire type sale to clear out there older cpu. on amd and nvidia front there foundrries that they used for gpu chips also had errors getting to 20mm. becuase of the issue nvidia maxwell was late and still on 28mm chips. look at goolge a lot of the vendors are dropping 20mm and going to 16/14mm chips this year and next. amd at some point is dropping a newer gpu there been leaks about there next chips. there also been leaks that 256g and larger ssd price dropping soon. myself i hold off till nov/dec try to hit black friday/cyber moday sales and see how fast skylake is over haswell. newer skylake going to have ddr-4 ram . also there may be newer brodwell-e cpu. higher end gaming pc.

Monitors are another thing that may drop in price unless it's a premium monitor. Ssd's may also drop in price.
