Hey, don't settle on mining just one coin, mine the one that is the most profitable for your specifications at the specific moment. To check that, use a website like : http://www.coinwarz.com/cryptocurrency
where you can see how much profit/loss you make mining a coin with the power you can provide. Good luck

What is the kWh price in your area? I have always been interested in mining and thought it would be cool to setup some equipment, but with an energy price of €0.21 per kWh in my country it just doesn't seem really efficient to me.

It's only worth with Scrypt ASIC miners, and even if you make some profit using GPUs, you could be in a better position mining other altcoins.
