Is it way too late to get into mining now?

How much money do you make a month mining?

How much do you spend on electricity?

How much did you spend on your set up?
It's not too late and my electric bill is about $200 per month. My setup? Cost me about $3,200

How much I earn mining? Well that depends on several factors, but usually about $700 after electrical costs are factored in.

The R7 265 is already sold out on newegg btw :wow:

I think i'm about to pull the trigger on a GTX 780...any objections, deals, or advice? Its at the limit of my price range and performance to cost ratio is acceptable. Should last me a couple years with overclocking etc

if your games aren't power hungry, I'd wait til the 800 series drops so there might be a price drop on the 700 series.

I5-2500K which i havent even overclocked as yet. ASUS 24" momitor. Might upgrade that soon as well as its refresh rate is low these days. Its an ASUS VW246H. Im gonna run BF4, and other stuff like simulators etc. Anything below $600.

When those come out? A Ti 780 would do well too so i could use a price drop on those. I dont mind it being overkill right now b/c I'm looking for it to last me about 3 years TOPS...I currently have a superclocked 570 that does the job on everything but doesnt really MURDER games like i want.

thats the good thing about getting a 780. i hate thinking about upgrading and shyt. its a huge upgrade above the 570, which is what i had as well
