Please note that the 970 has a memory issue, whist you are unlikely to encounter it at 1440p, just know what you are getting.
The memory issue was as per usual with the PC community, Blown way way out of proportion ^_^
Don't know why people were expecting Nvidia to not get away with it. It is the single handed most circle jerked company in tech. Their apology about it shows they know they would get away with it.
Anyway back on topic. Get the best you can afford once the new AMD cards come out, as that will lower prices on the Nvidia side too. No point in really getting a new card unless you're not too fussed about paying alot more for a card that'll be quite a bit cheaper in a few months time.
We can't go off rumours and theories really.^^ couldnt possibly agree with you more, though its kinda a difficult decision as well, since the 390x is theoretically only going to come with a max of 4GB HBM.

We can't go off rumours and theories really.I'd wait,even if it is just for the price drop tbh.
The amount of vram is a rumor.. HBM was confirmed a while ago. I think what they will do is have a limited supply of 8GB models for the 390x and the rest will be 4GB. Then as yields rise they will continue to pump out more 8GB to the 390x and probably 390
