[POLL] GPU Miners Status - What are Graphics Card Miners doing ?

I am curious what the situation is so i got a poll and i think the choices in it will explain Wink

I have a crappy Fermi card i am mining with so i am not even counting that as Mining it's so slow and doesn't support many Algo's..
Also i know some guys had 100+ GPU's ..i had sold my last GPU a Radeon 7950 on eBay not long ago.. and i prob won't get any more GPU's any time soon.
So i voted option #1 = Sold 'em all off and not buying more.

Any thoughts ?

Who thought last year Nvidia would end up becoming a stronger player ? LOL

What i REALLY want to know is how much did the release of Scrypt Asics affect you all selling your GPU's etc
I have sort of thought most people started selling off their GPU's once they heard they are real and coming (way back JAN'ish) ..this is just common sense i think LOL

I have 35 cards, $0.11/kwh
I just break even on x11, I'm making about 20 a day mining other things right now. I won't sell, even if i mine at a slight loss. I have a 3 week grace period between when the hydro bill is issued and its actually due. This has been as long as 2 months, frequently. My thought is that this is enough time for a bubble to form.

I've looked at the 750ti's, I could double my farm if I sold most of my current holdings, but roi is still dismal if we don't bubble this year. All I need is to be caught with a spiking bitcoin price right after I sold a lot of them.

I watched one guy who took out a 100k loan to start a farm in january, he mined at middlecoin until it died, then shut down and took a massive loss. He was complaining how he could barely get $200 dollars for a 290 card, when they were still retailing for 600. His power was as cheap as mine. He could still be in profit.
