So how much a day can I make if I run this card nonstop in bitcoins each day, using the GIGABYTE GV-N760OC-4GD REV2.0 GeForce GTX 760 4GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 card?

I'd recommend mining something like litecoins or feather coins something lite and easy because only really powerful computers can mine bitcoins! I mean in the USA there is a Bitcoin mining farm which generate $8 million a month. Also a cheap way to mine would probably be to bye a raspberry Pi and a usb miner. The raspberry Pi would not use much power so you would earn more profit.

Well then Deuce, if that is so, how many and what type of video card would I need to make $3 a day?No one mines bitcoins with video cards anymore. You would need something like 6500 (yes, that is 6500) R9290x to make three dollars a day directly mining bitcoins. But of course you wouldn't make 3 dollars a day because you would spend thousands on electricity.
You would need two AMD 280X's to get about $100 a month.
Again, here's the calculator

Here is a chart of card's hash rates:

Who said it was cheap and easy? And who says that card is cheap? Think, stop presuming and putting words in peoples' mouths.
I'm not presuming anything. The calculators are out there. You can do the calcs as easily as anyone else.
With your equipment (existing or yet to be bought), and your elec cost, will you personally make a profit?
Only you can tell.

First of all you need custom hardware for mining bitcoins so forget that. You need to mine litecoins which don't work with custom boards.

That is a site that you can figure out things. You would make about $14.65 a month assuming 160KHash and $16.50 per litecoin.
