The thing about GPU mining is that it offers more options.

Short answer: yes ASICS mine better.

Long answer: an ASICS miner apart from mining is useless which means if for what ever reason you want to sell the hardware, selling your mining hardware will be hard if the market isnt going up. While a GPU you can still sell in a bearish market since its used in computers. Additionally, many GPUs support different algo's whereas a specific ASIC miner can only mine specific algo's. This again means that should something happen that you want to mine something else you can do this more easily using GPU (depends on the GPU as well so do your research).

And low prices can also be an opportunity, it means that hardware is likely also cheaper to buy.
