It is "buy low, sell high". And it isn't low yet. Wait for $1500.Buy now sell later.

An assumption that BTC price could already be considered low (at $2000) is pretty optimistic. Once again: this is a price we had just 2 months ago. At the end of 2016 it was under $1000.That's what i meant.
Buy low = buy now
Sell high = sell later

For me i used 8 maybe 9 cards folding and all lived on until thoroughly useless or are still in use, cant really say what mining will do but low temps helps and i cool them adequately so ill get a few years out of them ,my 480(580bios+) have never been above 56 and their vrms never above 70 ,that kind of cooling does wonders for longevity even at max stable clocks though obviously you don't mine at maxmamy cards have died folding.

Most GPU miners don't give a rats ass about artifacts as long as the clocks are stable. A lot of cards end up with bad memory.

The ones that died where crap anyways. The memory did not overclock that high. The ones that died where all Nvdia 1060 3gb, memory overclock on those averaged 200-300mhz on the memory, the rest of the 1060s are at 550mhz overclock.Sounds like the result of less than proper overclocking. I've clocked mine up for very short periods of time, thinking about how I can earn more with higher clocks... then I reset to stock because I don't want to risk losing my cards to overclocking, nor do I feel like taking the time to do it properly. I know about temps too, which is why I set a really aggressive fan curve. It starts out at 40%, then up to 80% at 50c, and 100% at 60c. My cards usually hover around 70c at 100% fan speed now. I don't have the greatest cooling with these blower style coolers, so, yeah... Kinda wishing I would have paid a little more for the one with the better cooler, but what's done is done and the card itself is more or less the same anyway.
If there was an easy way to clock both cards at the same time the right way, I might consider it, but easy way and right way rarely coexist.

Get a different GPU. You won't make a profit with this one.can i mine worthwile on my HD 7790? its a ghz one with good clocks.
also any good way to get started?
