I have a 4060 laptop that's really struggling to handle 2K gaming, especially with newer titles. I'm thinking about building a gaming PC that can run games smoothly at 2K, but I'm unsure if I should go ahead and build it now or wait a few months for the upcoming 5000 Super Series. I'm based in Canada and my budget is around $3500, but I can stretch it a bit if necessary.

If your current setup is working fine enough for you, waiting might be a good idea. But remember, there’s always going to be new hardware coming out. The 5070 Ti might be a solid choice for your needs, especially if you want good performance without playing the waiting game.
The 5000 Super series cards may not be at their MSRP for quite some time. I personally recommend going for a 5070 Ti now. With your budget, you can build a strong rig that meets your current gaming requirements and allows for upgrades in the future.
The best time to buy is generally now! If you're currently playing games and not happy with the performance, like lag in certain titles, then go ahead and build your PC now. The latest graphics cards are likely to get scalped right after they're released, so you might be better off not waiting too long.
