Mining with a GPU is still pointless even when it's 'free'. You'd be lucky to make a dollar after a year of going flat out. I guess if the winters are cold, it will warm your house.......

With the value of BTC going up significantly in the past 6 months the cost of acquiring dedicated equipment (if you can even find it for sale) has also increased. There's really no point making a capital investment then waiting for months just to break even (hopefully) as you use it to mine. May as well just buy and hold BTC.
