Since this is a Bitcoin centric forum, and not altcoin related, I'll respond as such. It is no longer economical or useful to try and mine Bitcoins with anything but an ASIC. The electricity cost alone will exceed the value of the Bitcoins that you mine. If you wish to mine at a loss, then GPu's will work fine. Six GPU's will only mean that you lose more money than using just one.

You should probably sell most if not all of your GPU's, and buy a used ASIC miner to see if you like it.

GPU mining of bitcoin or other SHA256 coins has been EXTREMELY UNPROFITABLE for years now.

 It's been very unprofitable for any Scrypt coin for almost 2 years now.

 It might be profitable with carefull tweeking and use of the "right" GPU for other altcoins, but that's a question for the altcoin parts of the forum.

I'm no longer legendary just in my own mind!

Even if you have free power you shouldn't mine with a GPU.  Just buy a low end miner if you want to mine.
