At this stage i would stay away from mining with those energy cost, your ROI period would be above 1 year if im not wrong, soo would be better buy bitcoin and hold it into those period. Unless you focus into start a big mining operation, with cheaper energy, at those well its another history, and well market is waiting for the first Japan miners wich should compete with bitmain miners.
it still depends. let say if your on a country that electricity has a less cost hen compared to most countries that has a standard charge fees and also if you have a good capital to start a different kinds of mining hardware and rigs , then that would be much better if to mine instead of buying, trading or investing that may cost you much more of your time and cash.
Nowadays gpu mining in bitcoin is pretty obselete since the ASICS shown up with your gpu you can't gain a profit with that you are just wasting your time and electricity and the ASICS are pretty expensive. I suggest that you should move to mining altcoins because the difficulty is lower and some coins except bitcoin cash is asic free so you can earn a lot in altcoin mining than bitcoin mining with only gpu.
yeah right, mining bitcoin is pretty hard these days , knowing that op is only using a gpu instead of an actual mining hardware although he can still use it to mine altcoins then sell or convert those altcoins to get a bitcoin , then i guess that will solve his problem.
