Hold the line....the real price drops are coming sooner than later.
All in all, prices have stayed relatively flat. My entire PC would cost almost exactly the same of what I paid for it 6 months ago. Prices haven't dropped any more than one would expect them to drop in normal times over the past 6 months.
Trying to catch the bottom of the market is a fool's errand for most. If you could really predict the dip and the peak you wouldn't worry about prices on a last gen mid-tier video card. You'd be too busy counting your billions.

I think you're right that it's silly to wait forever, especially if you really need a new GPU, but I think it's also evident that prices were pretty inflated in the last few years and that prices are coming back down. There's been lots of more formal and data driven discussion on the various tech news/blog sites, talking about how Nvidia cards, for example, have gone from selling way above MSRP to slightly below MSRP.
If you don't mind picking up some things used, you can build a 4K capable PC for around $1,200

That said, prices will continue to drop. I played the waiting game all last summer and fall before deciding to make the plunge. And all that waiting saved me maybe $50 over a 6 month period. And if I had followed the "hold the line" advice and bought my same rig today it might be a whole whopping $20-30 less expensive for waiting an additional 5 months. Basically, over the course of an entire year my gaming PC has dropped in price $100. That was hardly the epic collapse that virtually every SD predicted last spring/summer.
