For now, i have a really low tier pc:

CPU: Pentium G645
GPU: Dedicated Intel HD Graphics
Ram: 2 GB

It depends on how quickly you want to have anew PC, as pascal and polaris won't be announced until June/July, and the first parts will probably arrive on the market a bit after that, so if you can wait at least 4 months then go for the new GPUs, otherwise, just pull the trigger on buying the r9 390 which is a very good card anyway

Ok den, thanks for the reply
 
Hold off until the new parts are released, you're already looking towards May/June for the purchase anyway, so you might as well wait a little longer and see what the new parts have to offer before making a decision.
I take it you're going to be looking for a whole new setup BTW, the existing one is going to severely hold back a R9 390.
 


i'm buying a whole new pc with the new CPUs and stuff.
