You can't mine Bitcoin with GPU's.  So you need to post in the alt coin section.

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
A: Top-posting.
Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and in e-mail?

if you want to mine with GPU's i suggest you look into nemosminer or multipoolminer. these miners have a feature in which it will automatically switch the miner program the you are running to ensure that you are mining the best possible coin for that particular moment. or if you wish to have a GUI dashboard without having to go online, miner control is a good one. Lastly, nicehash because it is self explanatory, just slap your bitcoin wallet address and click benchmark, be sure to tick start mining after benchmarks and you are set.

EDIT: i have 2 rigs running, but only one is mining for 24 hours straight, because i sometimes use the other one for gaming. for the time being, a 3X GTX1070 rig should be okay and if you have some more budget, look in those 1080Ti's. if you are looking to mine on a budget nvidia GTX 900 series and amd cards are generally cheaper than the newer one.

You can use Claymore to dual mine coins like ETH+DCR using AMD or Nvidia gpus. Currently in terms of profit 1080tis are good. But ROI is around 4-5 months. If you can tolerate this then you can buy a 1080ti and mine equihash coins or lbry credits.
