Awesomebread²:
I see. Well I have an HD 7870 and R7 370. Not really a high end setup, but would it be worth giving anything a shot?
Planr:
how long would it take me to mine a small percentage of a bitcoin? like say 5%?
i have a gtx 960m and an Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4720HQ CPU @ 2.60GHz (8 CPUs)

probably 800-900 h/s with monero if you use them both discretely, about .01 to .015 a day which is something like $2-$2.50 a day using free power

apparently those add up to ~400 hash, thats like a dollar a day if you pay nothing for electricity
considering bitcoin is like $11000 right now youd have to mine for close to two years or so

so is it better to just buy bitcoin and wait for it to appreciate in value? i feel a lot more optimistic about litecoin and etherium atm tbh
Kearn:
either that or buy mining hardware, but dont take your investment advice from me
