I just purchased some parts from NewEgg and TigerDirect. Is it too late to start mining? :C

NewEgg will take 2 days to get here, while 3 days with TigerDirect.


Also, should I start with a lot of hardware? Or start small and buy more as you earn more Bitcoins.

Based on the websites you bought your "miner" I'm guessing you want to mine with a GPU with a custom made PC.

Even the smallest USB ASIC miner will be thousands of times better than a great GPU, so you can't realistically mine Bitcoin with a GPU.

You can however mine altcoins with a GPU/CPU. But for that you'll have to post in the Alt Mining section: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=160.0


When you say "Even the smallest USB ASIC miner will be thousands of times better than a great GPU, so you can't realistically mine Bitcoin with a GPU", could you suggest a model and approximate price? I am asking this because I have been mining BTC using Nicehash since last year with 8x 3080s!
