Should I get a GTX 970 now? Or wait for Pascal GPUs?

Hi. So, I don't know if I'm asking the right question, but, should I buy a GTX 970 now? Or should I be expecting a Pascal GPU with the same price as the GTX 970 but having a better performance? Well, I'm noob when it comes to GPUs and stuff, but I just want an answer. Pascal's coming on 2016 right? Just read some articles, it is expected to perform better, and I'm afraid that purchasing a GTX 970, now that Pascal's coming, is a bad idea.

If it is possible that a Pascal GPU will perform better than the GTX 970 at a similar price, I would gladly wait for it.

Thank you guys. Any kind of response will be appreciated.

I would think Pascal is over a year away maybe more, who know's, but I don't see a point in waiting for it when the 970 is a great gpu to game with right now.

A Pascal GPU will be needing a new motherboard that has NVLink, so I don't think I'll be waiting for it. I'm getting the GTX 970.
