I wish it was 'free' electricity - its my home office Wink

I do plan on switching to LTC once i have an ASIC or FPGA miner - currently i'm mining at a 40-50% profit margin per bitcoin - although i need to pay for the hardware that i bought originally to mine. (PSU and extra GPU)

At the moment my PC is built like a high end gaming rig with lots of airflow (220mm fan over GPUs) - my motherboard has 4 PCIe 16x headers but they are next to each other. so basically 2 are hiding under one of my GPUs.

Powered risers from hong kong are about 5.99 and the standard ones are are 2.99.
