If you have just one 7870 and want to make profit, the profit will be low if you consider the electricty cost of the whole system.

You miss the point of that 7870 rig.
I already HAD everything else to put it together - so my ENTIRE out of pocket cost for the rig is the $80 I paid for the card.
Pretty good risk that it'll achieve ROI and then some - and yes, I do factor the electric use of the entire system (it's a little Semperon machine, the rest of the system don't eat a lot).
It's mining 11+ MH, or roughly $1.30 a day right now while eating about 30 cents in electric, so netting close to $1/day. If it had a gold power supply in it instead of a generic NAXN, it would probably be eating less than a quarter a day in electric.
*IF* current difficulty and price on Ethereum stayed the same (yes, I realise that's VERY unlikely), it would achieve ROI in less than 3 months then go profitable (I've actually been running the thing for a bit already, so it's close to 2 months to ROI point right now). Realistically, I figure it will probably ROI in 3-4 months from now, then be pure profit for a while after that.
It'll get even cheaper to run after I move this summer, and by the time Ethereum is no longer profitable I'll probably move it over to crunching RC5-72 - unless something else that AMD GPUs can mine profitably well has come along in the meantime.

You have cheaper electricity. So even if the difficulty double, you will sitll make very good profit out of it.

I still mine the Etheruem. But I just checked the difficulty level, it is 43.6T now. At this rate of rise, It will not be profitable in two months.

Once I get my planned move done, I'll be in a land of VERY VERY cheap electricity. 8-)

It's pretty widely reported and well known that 3 specific counties in Washington State near the Columbia River have "masses and masses of cheap hydropower".
Think "MegaBigPower" and "Zoomhash's farm" (which is nowhere near their CORPORATE headquarters, I'm supprised they haven't consolodated locations by now) and the like.

I still mine the Etheruem. There is a good market to absorb the mined Etheruem, so I can make some profit.

There are many investments in the Ethereum mining. The difficuty or the hash rate is all time high at the moment.

In a few months, even the 280x will be useless as it has higher power consumption compared to the new cards.

The hashing rate of the 280x drops steadily. 6 months ago, it could has 26 MH/s, now, it can only do 20.
