Not really. You're looking in the past when you should be looking in the future. DO you think that people were saying ETH was another scam coin / shitcoin at the start? You bet there were, and I'd wager some of them were mining eth themselves. Just pick an alt coin thats fairly new to mine, look at revolver or vcash for starters. also check out whattomine.com

Ok I won't lie and pretend I know everything because I don't know too much about the smaller details involved in mining but, I was wondering, is GPU mining truelly dead ? I saw a post the other day about a guy mining eth last month. Unfortunately you would make 3x less with todays difficulty compared to them.

I mean even if there are new coins worth mining because they might go up in value would anyone point me in the right direction ?

yes go here  :

First: I asked mods to move to alt coins.  Alt coins are the only coins worth mining with a gpu.

Second: eth coins are best coin at the moment.

Third: if you have no in house gear of any kind it is harder to do.

Fourth: if you have a decent atx psu.  you can get into the game.

Fifth: no mobo buy this one 

 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157471
cost =    $65.00

no cpu buy this one

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA1N83U90757    $46.00

no ram

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820156046

$27.00

no hard drive get this

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA0ZX4685503

$50.00

no os well windows 7 or linux are cheap  real cheap

so for 200 plus a psu and a gpu you are ready.

lots of cheaper psu's out there for 60-75  and a used  r9 390 gpu for 200


so from nothing a 1 card r9 390 for about 500.   and remember it is a real pc.

so figure what 25-28mh  will earn burning 225 watts.
