Nope. The days of 1 year ROI on GPU are gone. Also there is no magic coins.

Not gone yet if you don't pay GOUGE pricing and don't have high electric cost.
The days of 2-3 MONTH ROI however appear to be gone, barring another major price JUMP like a year ago or the introduction of a new coin like ZEC that gets crazy-high priced in it's first week or two.

Apparently he wasn't paying attention to MSRP when he built his mining rig and ended up paying too much over. I'm mining with 31 gpu's that were purchased 5%-8% over MSRP, and I'm doing just fine. Not getting the crazy high daily returns that I was in December and Janurary, but that doesn't make it a losing game. Especially for someone like me who is not cashing out into fiat. I've yet to sell any crypto for fiat that I've ever mined and have no plans to until the time is right.

i have a 10 gpu rig and all cards were bought from 15-20% cheaper than MSRP. If you consider actual prices , i saved more than 50% of it's current value for each card.

and Still, i almost get any profit noticeable. my gpus are Sapphire rx 580 nitro+ and 570 nitro+ with 8gb, most of them doing 32mh/s with almost no mem errors which gives me 316,4 mh/s combined. and still, not worth at all.

I would advice noone to enter mining nowadays. Specially if you have to pay those huge prices for GPU.

I wasn't talking about you. I was talking about dimpsk. Throwing numbers around that may be correct today for his specific situation, but could dramatically change with the snap of a finger in either direction. I wouldn't advise anyone to get into mining. Now is not the time to buy gpu's. There are a lot of get rich quick types trying to get into mining right now who don't understand the variables. And then there are a lot of people who think todays math will be the same tomorrow. Not going to happen.

Bottom line is that if you're making more than you are paying in electricity, it's still profitable. If you jumped in before doing the proper research and paid way too much for your hardware, that's your own fault.

Being "worth" it is subjective.
