Title says it all. Last year I stopped mining litecoin with my gaming computer and I kinda tuned out of the market so I was wonder if GPU litecoin farms are still profitable?

Nope... It's still not worth it mining litecoin directly too. Is it?

any scrypt is not worth it, since asic come out, actually they weren't that great even before(because of the heat ecc....), scrypt algo was good for instamining only

I am in the cold part of the world so the heat was a positive for me in the winter ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I would have my gpu runnings a massive overclock at 60 degrees!

Ask yourself this, if anyone was making a significant amount of money doing something, would they tell everyone about it?
But regardless, GPU mining is about as profitable as the electricity it consumes - so no.

GPU Mining for Litecoin has been dead for quite a few months with that difficulty and low price of litecoin. Sadly ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif)

mining litecoin with GPU is not profitable anymore, you can try mining some x11 or x13 algorithm coins with your GPU

Not at all, you will need ASIC for scrypt mining.

I had a gtx 670 that I overclock alot like +40% and used that so I was not heavily invested. I stopped and sold my 10ltc for 50

Are they scrypt asics profitable? Depends on the price you pay, the cost of your electricity, and what you intend to mine.

no its not, there are scrypt asic out in the market, and a gpu hashrate is nothing when compared to scrypt asic forget about this, or you can sell this and buy a scrypt asic with it
