Hi i have a Gigabyte R9 -280x with scrypt she does 700kh/s  , i dont pay eletricity i was thinking in use her to mining something again, i will like to know if is there some algoritim profitable for her, i really like mining but i will really love if it become profitable, mostly of time i just play games with her, but  now games has no fun for me at all, so i was thinking in put her to work or sell her.

if she just do 0.005 per day i will keep her (i dont care what coin she will mine)

Scrypt is ASIC territory now. Do Ethereum.

Also head to Altcoin section, not Bitcoin section. You can come by the IRC in my sig if you want more info.

It will probably mine 0.001 to 0.002 a day. Mine with it till you can sell it I'd u can get a good price on it.

i started to mining ETH for me it still profitable because i dont pay energy so here we go again, the only problem with the R9-280x (Gigabyte)
 is the 3 coolers they start a noise some times

Eth mining is still very profitable right now even if you are paying for (reasonably priced) power.

it depend how much you pay, but even at 0.25 is profitable by a small margin above that not anymore

it's better to have free nergy with some green source, to squeeze the most profit out of it while it last

in brazil we dont have grrensource , we have something called GATO(CATS), and we dont pay eletricity, but cats can be dangerous if the company catch you, but if you have a CAT you can put a bitcoin farm without spend any peny for eletricity
