I know that this can be a huge mistake, but, i have the ability to get 2 HD 5450s for 15$ ( both ), and i might put them in a LGA775 mobo. I dont have to pay for electricity so there is no real loss, and on average, how much would i get daily if i mine eth/bitcoin ? I know that these are the lowest end cards of 5xxx series but im just wondering. The price can be both, $ or Euros.

You wouldn't make your money back.

You would get $2.88 a year, assuming a hashrate of 169 KH/s. It's not worth it.
