no too many people invested into GPU mining for your gpu rig to become worthless. Right now the algorithm to mine is Scrypt-N because it is asic proof. There are also new algorithms that came out like X11 but it is not that profitable to mine right now.

But x11 consumes 30% of the electricity consumed by Scrypt-N. You know about that?

For me it's 40-50% comapared to regular scrypt.
