Errr whats "medium"

Also bitcoin mining hasn't been profitable for a while. You're better off mining another coin. Also to even get a considerable profit, you have to have a big upfront investment (Linus did a series) and you'll gain back the money in a few months... Assuming the crypto stays stable....

That can mean literally any price. 

Also mining is a bit impractical on pc right now, you would get about 1.5$ a day even with a 1080ti, so long time to get even.

 

If you want to do it as an investment there are better investments out there. You are 2 years late to the mining party.

Oddly specific...

It takes tones of graphics cards to even make something considerable, like tens of thousands (ok maybe more like 5 grand on the low end) It's still not worth it, and like @Some Random Member said, you're better off choosing a different investment.

Now thats up to you. You're on a tech forum so I dont think its optimal to ask here. Maybe in the Off-Topic subsection you can ask, or another forum completely.

Right now I would recommend a setup much like this one, and I would grab a RX 580, RX 570, 1050 ti, 1060 3gb , 1060 6gb, 10701070 ti, or a Vega 56 as a starter card, or wait for new Nvidia GPUs when they drop in the next month or 2, but good luck getting your hands on one of those for a reasonable price when they launch, I expect a total sellout inside of a half an hour.

In search of the future, new tech, and exploring the universe! All under the cover of anonymity!
