So my gaming pc has a 1070 in it and I download nicehash and it's getting 59 cents a day. Lol I have a couple of r9 280x sapphire with a mobo 8g ddr3 750psu and a hdd. Is it worth it to get the old pc up and running as a mining rig? There's also several 280x around my area for about 80 bucks so I could get 4 or so. Would that make any money at all or has the new dedicated system for mining put gpu mining out of business?
 
Solution
Nicehash provides a profitability calculator: https://www.nicehash.com/profitability-calculator/

Apparently you'll earn $8.43 per month with a 280X based on today's rates, before taking electricity costs into account.
