RE: Report: Building a GPU Mining Rig in 2017 (part 2) - ETH, ETC, DCR and more incoming!
isn't it cheaper to buy get an asic miner?
I would be interested in mining but i am still checking if it worth it money wise and what hardware should i invest in
I think you are more flexible with a GPU miner. Also, nobody knows when new ASICS for BTC will come out and all the Antminer R9s might become unprofitable over night. I am far from beeing an expert. Definitly do a lot of research before investing. And probably stay away from "cloud mining". Most are simple ponzi schemes and only very few are legimate.
Mining with real hardware is not easily very profitable, unless you are planning on a huge operation with very low energy costs. You should view it more as a hobby I think.
Have fun.
Thanks for this man
That is useful information
So GPU miner is the best solution for the long run?
I think so, yes. Although nothing is certain, even GPU can be unprofitable if prices crash and/or difficulty increases a ton or any other unforseeable event happens.
I am uploading several posts about NVIDIA GTX mining builds right now, stay tuned!
