Hi, could someone give me a rough estimate on how long one would have to mine to achieve 1 bitcoin ?
Say the scenario/setup is as follows:
- 7970 GPU (500 avg Mhash/s)
- 24/7 operation
- Slush's pool (or similar)
Thank you
The answer is never for GPU. You need many Th/s for that.
Very true now GPU is not profitable for most. I sold all mine and bought coins then asics.
1 gpu will never make 1 btc (i think safe to say) as of now. (Small exception you happen to mine launch some asic resistant coin, and with A LOT of luck it goes up a lot)
