Started mining alt-coins half way through December. Yes, late to the game, but it's also a pretty good investment for my personal computer part situation: Instead of a bunch of medium cards, I got an R9 290x. So even if I make nothing, Ill have a brand new graphics card that blows my old Nvidia 560 out of the water. My friend did the same thing, and we're mining together.
Actually, I'm really tempted to stop and play Tomb Raider and BF4 on ultra with it..
