There is also a minor advantage mining ETH in that your hardware is kinda resellable afterwards. The motherboards maybe not, but the power supplies will be. Sooner or later when PoS comes in, GPU mining ETH is going to stop.

There's an argument that the cards will flood the market and won't have any resale value, though I'm not sure (plenty of people want the cards for gaming). In any case that's mainly applicable to AMD cards.

However, the reason I bought NVIDIA is at least I have 4x 1060's as a nice little CUDA box afterwards.
