Hello,
should I start mining using the Gigabyte GV-R797OC-3GD?

I already got the board, all I need is new Power Supply and GPU. I can buy this for 250 € and sell it for 100 € after mining will be no longer viable. So hardware costs are 150 €.
This card should be able to do 700 MH/s.
Power for one month will cost me 26 €.
Let's say, that the BTC will be at level 220 EUR per BTC.

Do you think I should start mining? Do you think, that GPU mining is viable?

Thanks guys Smiley

Bitcoins no (will take 5-6 years to make a bitcoin/cost you vastly more in electricity),

Litecoins yes.
