> A GTX1070 costs about $800.

Where on earth are you getting that statistic? Newegg sells GTX 1070 ti's for ~500 when they are in stock. Same with bhphotovideo.

Depending on what coin you mine you can net $8-10 dollars a day - then exchange it to ETH/LTC/XMR/etc.

Also factoring in the growth rate of the exchanged currency the ROI on that is less than 3 months.

I just stuck "GTX1070" in Amazon and that's the rough price that came up.

GPUs are on backorder almost everywhere. So suppliers that still have them are all at 2-3x the price. When they are in stock they are ~$500.
