I7 920 or wait for 980x

Last response: in CPUs

I'm about to build a new digital audio workstation.
Should I go ahead and use an i7 920 or wait for the new 980x to be available?
I'm willing to pay the cost difference, but I've already ordered my motherboard and other components, and am just trying to decide on which processor to use.
What's a realistic timeframe for when I might get my hands on a 980x?
I don't want to wait too long, because I need to be able to return any components that might turn out to be DOA.
My ASUS motherboard is 980-x ready.
