it's still profitable to buy Z9 or A9 ?
i have almost free electricity (0.02-0.03$ per kwh)
is it possible to achieve Payback under 4 month?
any advice?
I would look at ROI as triple what you see to be conservative. Only other large factor could be a bull run and if you buy you're set and geared for it, in place of scrambling to acquire hardware at higher costs. There's a lot to weigh, I wouldn't purchase unless the capital you're using isn't going to hurt if ROI isn't achieved in a time you're comfortable with.
