I am getting new pc at the end of the month and I was thinking about getting GTX760, but I heard that 900 series cards are coming very soon, maybe this month.
So my question is.. Buy GTX760 now or wait for 9xx series if they are cheaper ?

The 900 series of GPUs will probably not come out by the end of this month. Most people speculate that it will only be REVEALED at Gaming 24. Gaming 24 is in September. If your willing to wait, then I would say wait, but there is no guarantee they will release a GPU at the 760 price point. I would recommend just going with a R9 280(Unless you really want a GeForce card). Asus CUII R9 280 is around $15-$20 saving from a 760. Also there are Sapphire and Gigabyte coolers in that same price point. If you like XFX, its $2 cheaper than the Twin Frozr 760.

Good luck, and I hope I helped you in some way ;)

There is no reason not to wait at this point.
Im not saying wait to buy the card when it comes out, but rather wait to see how they perform, THEN decide if it is worthwhile.

"Few details are listed however there are some very interesting specs listed. it confirmes that the card has 4GB graphics memory on a 256-bit bus. But here's more interesting info, the entry also lists the number of Shader processors at 2560 with 160 TMUs (texture memory units) and 64 ROPs"

Unfortunately, doesn't sound like it will be in your price range. Well just have to wait and see.
