There's no reason to wait. PCI-E will be a new technology, but even now, the performance increase isn't gonna be because of the new technology...it's gonna be because of the increased clock speed. Waiting almost a year for new cards to come out isn't worth it. They'll just be $500 new at the beginning of next year. May as well get a card now; those new cards aren't gonna be cheap for a long time.

PCI express is a major step. it will make a huge diferance in speeds if you are willing to wait for it wait. its solid tech with large backing (unlike RDRAM)
