Just check this calculator:
and here are the M/s of several processors and cards:
do the math.
With a 20 m/s, the calculator gives this:
PER MONTH: ฿0.04 $4.60.

My gamer PC with a AMD HD 7770 does 150-200 MH/s
Take three good cards in a single setup, and you should be able to do 1000 MH/s
According to the calculator you link to, that is = $299.98 a month
Buy 3 x 7970 ($350-550 each depending on where in the world you are located) you should be able to build a rig for less than $1500
Not counting in the power bill, it would take 3 months to break even at the current exchange rate.
I did it for a test only, just to see how much I could push through. It's not profitable enough, to be worth my time.
