Does Mining still worth the investment?

[kergad]

Hi Guys,

I'm new in this bitcoin world and I'm interesting to start mining.
I'm thinking to start with that: https://products.butterflylabs.com/homepage/5-gh-s-bitcoin-miner.html

But my question is it still possible to earn about 1bitcoin per week with this kind of device?

Thanks

You'll come nowhere near 1BTC a week

Its not worth it at all. Just forget about mining, you wont make your money back.

1BTC per week 

Currently 0.15 BTC / week
When you receive it probably 0.01 BTC / week

Decide yourselves

Another question you might want to ask yourself is IF (and then maybe, When) you will receive the miner.

BFL have a pretty serious base of unsatisfied customers who have yet to get miners they ordered months and months ago.

Given the current difficulty increase rate, it may be a lot safer bet to invest in something else without being able to be certain on when you would receive any given hardware.

Try mining with GPU-s you will get your money back a little bit faster...

Alright,

it's that I was thinking. 1BT/week seems to good to be true

So in fact now the mining decrease a lot. Even with a cheap GPU solution, is it really worst the time to set up it?

Like said

tarfereon, 0.15 BTC / week

mining seems to be reserved only for big structure, and in fact not for long.

ATI 5850: $150
The rest of the computer: $200

Result: 330MH/s  so 15 time less than a 5GH/s device.

If I'm using the right number, I can earn 0.01 BTC/week ($1.35) with my homemade GPU's solution
