RE: Mining at Home: Important Update
How much does it cost to get mining equipment (as an individual)? I've been thinking of mining, but I'm worried I can't recoup the cost..

I bought my Bitcoin miner for 0.55 btc and my Dash miner for 0.8 btc. Recouping the costs is, indeed, difficult to achieve at home, unless your electricity is extremely cheap or free (like mine is, sort of).
You might have a better shot at making profit if you go with GPU-based mining and build yourself a mining rig or use your gaming PC to mine.
I guess electricity might be pretty expensive..
Gaming PC as in a desktop? Do gaming laptops work well?
Anything that has a powerful enough GPU card in it. :)
Sounds great thanks :)
