I was hoping to order ASICs miners but in every official site it is either out of stock or does not ship to my country (India).
And sites like ebay and amazon sell them for insane prices like around 3x or 4x their original price.
I see a lot of youtube videos using multiple GPUs for mining( like 6 or 8 )...So i was wondering if these people use GPU setup just because they cannot get their hands on an ASIC miner or do they see any benefits from GPUs?
If anyone has any links to legit websites that sell ASIC miners...Ill be pleased to visit them.
On the other hand if i should build a GPU mining setup, can someone experienced help me setup the rig?
And also what are the advantages of having a GPU mining setup over an ASIC miner?
And besides, electricity cost is cheap here..so there is no worries about it.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

To mine BTC directly you won't get around mining with ASICs. GPU mining is only viable for alt coins, even with low electricity cost. The good thing is, if it's BTC you're after, you can still mine alt coins with GPUs and then exchange those alts for BTC.
