I know, depressing hey :(

I didn't know the coal resource has come back in such demand again??

2010 called, they want their joke back.

The cheapest 1080 at that site is only $110 more. It might be worth that extra overtime at work.

i got a 1070 for $440 once

I just made $170 profit selling mine :D

Trying to ditch my 2 right now so I can grab a single 1080ti. Will see how it goes.

How much do you want for them?

Amazon one? I got the same one. Stupid derp I sold it second hand 2 months later for $380 when upgrading to the Amazon $599 1080. A week later I'm mining and that 1070 was sorely missed :/

Is mining really worth it? I've looked into it but not sure.

the mining boom is over. look at BHP's share price and see that downward trend for the last 7 FY? the chinese are now looking at ways to partner with africa. they have a lot of untapped natural resources there.

Yer I thought using GPU's to dig up iron ore was a bit weird!
But seriously, curious to know what people's returns are with 1-2 gpus mining cryptocurrency

Define worth it - it's profitable if you have a reasonable idea of what you're doing. For most it's essentially a hobby that can make a small amount of loose change on the side. If you were capable of/inclined to mining as a serious enterprise you would likely already be heavily involved.

By worth it, I mean outside of having a dedicated setup, for someone running a couple of GPU's in an otherwise standard desktop, how much profit are you actually likely to make assuming the PC was running 24/7.

it's easy to work out - just take your gpu price and get a profit/day figure from nicehash.com. for at least a few months it's been around 80-100 day payback.

@combatant:
Mining ETH with a GTX 1070 is about 85-100USD a month at current prices then your looking at $20 per month extra in electricity.
@cowza: that's a very variable figure if you're mining only eth and holding. effectively doing two things - mining and speculating on one crypto currency. the currency is anything but stable too. my spread is about 5:1 btc to eth.

Obviously it depends on which GPUs you are running and what you are mining - different GPUs have different hash rates for different cryptocurrencies. You may need to change currencies on a semi-regular basis and always be keeping tabs on https://whattomine.com/
As for how much profit, just knock up a basic spreadsheet with your configuration and alter according to what you're mining to get some reasonable-ISH projections.

You'd be nuts to mine and not be trading in some capacity. The market is so volatile it's a risk. Of course you could just withdraw to FIAT immediately, but I don't think that's where the real profit will be.

@MissKitty:why? trading and mining are separate. if you want to invest in or day-trade crypto you can just buy some with FIAT. mining is investment in hardware.

from where and what model?

Better deal for me personally. Asus GTX 1080 for a bit more

trying to sell my 1070 as well. how much should i put it on gumtree?
amp extreme editing.

At least $500-$600

Going for more than that. $650 would be a minimum

Yeh it's gone up even more than i thought. Minimum $750 on PCCG for a 1070 now!


Literally the price 1080's were…
