Hello all.


first i have readed lot around forums but, i have still not come across that, when so many asics come out is there point starting mining with GPUs?

with BTC calculators it shows that i can still break even with few months. But i wonder how real life is in BTC mining.

if building mining rig: i have around 1500eur for cards.

1) 10-15 HD 5850s   OR  20 HD 5830s? or i should choose few better cards ?

2) if i but them 2way or 4way, then does second and others start mining slower than 100%?

or is there any good topic for starting miners.?

Difficulty just increased: http://www.bitcoinx.com/charts/



I would recommend you buy coins with that money instead. Or order an ASIC. GPU mining is the past.
