That pc is tax free in delaware so 1580  is the price.  I get a 98 dollar best buy discount  so it is 1482.  If it earns 8 a day then 6 a day then 4 a day then 2 a day  you average 5 so in 200 days it is 1000 back.  bringing the cost of a quality pc under 480  .

My point is boosting coin prices will sell pc's and pc companies are starting to see the sales.  which means they will feed some money into coins  as a commercial  of sorts.

Or is a meaning less concept in this example.  as no one looking to roi will buy this.   they would build a 2 x 1080ti machine of the same price and run it as an open careless rig.

this is for a dorm and a guy that wants a stud pc for his dorm it just got a lot cheaper due to mining potentail.


Isn't that profitability/return only true until they get their utility bill?  I guess if you're in a dorm and someone else is paying the bill, great, but other than that?

I am not sure but I believe he was talking about the net profit per day which means that electricity bill was already subtracted out in his figures. But I will wait and let him speak for himself.

you are correct.  so if you have a need for a stud pc for whatever reason other then   mining.  Mining now  allows you to get a better pc.

Ie I need at least a nvidia  1060 for my design work .  I can go to a 1070.

My numbers  are post power.  and the key is not longer cheap power.  at this moment you can gpu mine at 25 cents a kwatt and make money.

I mined at 12.7 cents in may  and paid 535 for power I earned pre power over 3k  so net of 2500 last month.
So if I was at 25 cent power  and paid 1000 for power earn pre power 3k  net of 2000 last month.

So the question is do we go up a lot and we are better today then the first day of this thread.

Do we crash and burn?

Or do we slow slip down to reality?

I like the slow slide. as my guess as most likely.

Not the crash and burn.
