If you are looking to use the computer for recreational gaming, too. Then, I would suggest the TI because of how powerful it is mining lots of algo's as a solo miner. If you were wanting to start building a rig, then I would suggest lower priced GPUs that can mine well and you can buy multiple cards for a third of the price of the 1080TI. The profit will depend on which coin is best at that particular time and then transferring that token to BTC/ETH/LTC or whatever you want. I mine to hold certain coins that I like and hope will go way up in the future.
