Is it still worth mining litecoins?

Out of idle curiosity, how profitable is LTC/BTC mining? 

 

Like, how much could be made monthly with a gtx780? (ignoring electricity/wear&tear).

Right now with my overclock on my 780 I'm making a whopping $10 a week, so $40 a month. When ltc was around $21 I was making double that, was more worth while then. Now it's just meh. 

My Rig :  Case: Cooler Master HAF X ,Motherboard: Gigabyte Z87X-UD3H,PSU: Seasonic SS-750KM3,Processor: Core I7 4770k (overclocked 4.7ghz),Cooler: Corsair H100i, GPU: EVGA GTX 780 with acx cooler, RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws 16gb DDR3 1600 (overclocked to 2000mhz), HDDS  Samsung 840 EVO 250 gb SSD , Western digital  2tb 7200 rpm 64mb cache, Old 1tb laptop drive I had , 320gb for os backup daily, 80gb external for weekly backups,Drives 2x Lg Blu Ray burner WH16MS40,MISC: Tp-Link dual band wireless card, Logitech g510s, Razer Deathadder 2013, Acer G236HLBbd 23" monitor, Old tv I had 23" for secondary monitor, old 32" samsung tv third monitor

Honestly though, if you wait long enough, you should easily make a profit. As long as you follow the market and switch to the most profitable coins. 

what card do you have? If you want to tell

The more you ask that on forums without actually doing it, the more it becomes non-viable :P

 

If it's something that interests you I'd say you should try it and see for yourself, I'm pretty sure that most people responding to this arent even mining.

I don't have ALL of the cards that I use to.

 

Through my whole mining "carer" I've had

  • 3x R9 290
  • 5x R9 280X
  • Eleven or so R9 270X
  • 7 GTX 750ti.

Not that many cards, but still a decent amount.

If you still have the gear, then heck yea!

 

If you don't, that's up for you to decide. Are you willing to wait 6ish months for 1 card to pay for itself?

ASIC USB's are the way to go. The things use only a few watts.

What I have is a gridseed blade that I got from Zoomhash.com

 

Not saying you will make money or anything, it's like they say, "It's not how big it is, it's how you use it".

How was the customer service? How long did you have to wait till you got your product? From your experience, is the brand reputable? 

 

Thanks in advance!

I'm sure @AK0490 will help you out but to be honest everything your asking can be found out on your own, if you want to mine for the sake of making money then you should push to figure out as much as you can on your own.

Just for the record, I sold all my bitcoins before the crash, I'm no longer working with cryptocurrencies.

I'm actually very curious, sorry for the big fuss all over this. xD

They have been fine for me. Their shipping time is  usually specified and is accurate. Gridseeds aren't perfect, but overall they are a fine product. They may have some new  Zeusminer product as well.
