I honestly want to just drop $3k on a mining rig. Is this worth it? Even if it takes months to pay off I'd still be okay with that
Can you profit at all mining BTC anymore on GPUs?
Anyone know of any good guides on how to build the most efficient, profitable rigs?
I don't want a BTC-specific ASIC since if BTC dies then this is useless. I want something general that can mine any mineable coin.
I feel like computational power is in general a valuable thing to invest in

Also, read this hilarious thread from back when ETH was sub-$1 of people saying it's overpriced and all speculation based, and that ETH has no real features and will never succeed

i make $5-6 a day mining with nicehash on an old r9 200 series. I should be mining eth but im lazy.
electricity here costs .07, so it really depends on your electric bill. Luckily mine is cheap af
good luck finding the low watt gpus, they are sold out everywhere
Get in line bitch, all the gpu are sold out for months. Once a new batch goes for sale the bots pick them up in an instant.

Seriously? How do people buy them for their gaming PCs? Are those ones not optimal for mining?
What if I can get electricity for free (industrial complex rent includes it). Would I be able to set up a farm?
