If the top 8000 card is at least as good as the 7900 XTX, yes. But as they said they won’t have any top-level GPUs … I’m not confident it will be. I would’ve waited for more information before building a new PC, just as I waited till Ryzen 9000 and x870(e) were released. But honestly, I’m just going to gamble and get the components asap, because there is no real information about RX 8000 or 79950 yet anyway.
Waiting a few months could be pretty good in order to calibrate my income vs my spending and how much I can save too, so I’ll probably do that. I’ll fix the worst wounds (nvidia drivers) with a 7600 soon temporarily anyway.
Do you think they will launch new GPUs at CES or just announce them?

I personally decided to yolo on the 7900xtx. Let’s hope it was a good move.
It definitely was a good move, but we’ll see if it was the best move.
Agreed
You really should wait until CES but if you are in need of a computer right now there are great parts out there now.
I’d wait for return of tariffs and higher prices!

Not sure how soon they will come out after CES. All we know is the announcement is coming.
