I've got a new build starting and the parts are on the way, except for a GPU. I got the 3570k with the integrated HD 4000 graphics. I was wondering if it would be worth it to wait until April to purchase the 8850 because according to this

The 8850 will be substantially better with an incredible price. Is this just a marketing ploy, or is this true? Would the HD 4000 hold off until then, I want to know how well I can run Bioshock and Bad Company 2, which aren't too demanding so I expect them to run fine on the integrated HD 4000.
