i heard the best graphic card for ethereum mining are the radeon R9 series
which 1 would be the ultimatly best of them price/profit comparisson

i was thinking off buying about 5- 8 graphiccards and connect them together for mining

i was reading from numbers between 25 -33 Mh/s pro card- is this somehow plausible?

so 6 cards would give me a total of 180mh/s

genesis mining gives you 100mh/s for 2600$ where 6 cards cost me around 1600$- of course i would need to pay electricity but i also keep the cards plus i might sell them 2 years from now.

should i go for it or is there a better way to go about this?

thanks for your help

Currently running 6 r9 290s with absolutely no tweaking and I'm getting 135 total. The rigs are reporting 20-25 per card, pool is reporting about 22.5 per card, except I'm only getting paid 75% of that.

So basically I'm netting about 16.83Mh per card as far as initially projected profit goes that's about 56.1% of expected returns from mining of where I've heard claims of people being.

First of all , if you really want to mine crypto currencies, forget about cloud mining. Genesis mining is just an investment with very high risk , where as buying the equipment and mine for your self is the best

You are right. With the $2600 for 100 MH/s, you will not ROI. The Ethreum difficulty is rising too fast to get ROI.
