Why not get one of that X11 Baikal miners instead with 900MH when invest such sum?

I wouldn't advise Asic. IMO it's the worst investment possible for miners. It's almost impossible to make ROI if you pay for electricity, because of the sharp increase of difficulty (mostly due of newer / more efficient ASIC being released every few months or so).

Only way to make ROI is to hold your coins and bet on a big price increase. But instead of buying the asic you might purchase the coins directly, less trouble and probably high profitability.

Yet if you want to mine, GPU mining is much more profitable and more fun (or laborious it depends your notion of "fun" Cheesy

).

:-) yeah of course I know that you pay the "premium" but would it in that case make not sense.... the GPUs cost not nothing and you get a franction out of it. But have to say I mined long long time ago last time and have no actual numbers now in head.
