It's always a good time to buy a new computer. In all honesty, I wouldn't wait if I were you. The processors are not going to be cheap when they're released initally. As of right now, you can get an 8800 GT and Q6600 that are selling for really cheap. Put those with some good ram and a good motherboard, and you will have an awesome system for not so much money.
