Comptia Security+ Get old exam or wait for new?

[caliginger]

Comptia Security+ are updating their exams to a new version. New books wont be released until the end of the year that cover the new topics but I have until the end of next month to take the exams either way.. and next month is also when the new exams will be released.

I was thinking about employers and how they'd likely view the newer exam as something more relevant but at the same time I'm not sure many would look at the exact version but rather if the certification was still valid or not.

Any thoughts on what I should do?
