What is the most accurate ASIC miner Profit Calculator these days?
Mine ;)  But it still operates within margins of peering into crystal balls as to what the USD/BTC rate is going to do, and what the Difficulty is going to do - so, pretty much: take your pick of calculator, they're pretty much all equally good/bad.
https://tradeblock.com/mining/
http://www.bitcoinx.com/profit/
https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/calculator

Note: Mine isn't really much different from any of the ones available online, except that it takes historical data on difficulty and when it's likely to change (https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficulty) into account, with difficulty remaining constant until the next change, instead of a daily or even monthly fixed % increase), and puts up some alternate scenarios.  I'd throw the libreoffice file up somewhere, but I'd rather some web programming person make an online one :)

https://tradeblock.com/mining/ <--- thought this was miningthegenesis block dafuq?

But yeah that one, or the one over at bitcoinwisdom are both excellent calculator with multiple parameters to configure and some presets if you are getting one of the listed ASICS.

They decided to focus more on the 'trade' side (you'll notice thegenesisblock.com redirects), but yes.. the calculator even still mentions its origins :)

I use this one https://cex.io/calc    Mining is about coins in and coins out, fiat money has little to do with it (except to pay electric bills if not already prepared with reserve money).

Looks like that one's got it down right - would be awesome if they mapped difficulty-function to difficulty-steps (as per the 'manual input' option), but at least having the option there means there's at least the option for a better calculation (+crystal ball gazing)
Edit: Though it doesn't seem like it's taking the BTC reward halving into account either.  Still better than most ;)
