Question regarding mining ETH

I wanted to just check it out. I have a 1080 with 8Gb of RAM and assuming my PC is using 400W (my guess this is an overestimation). I used lolminer and setup a Metamask wallet to send to. After setting up the bat file, i was getting 23.5 MH/s. I really have not messed around with over clocking.

Looking at last months Comed bill, I am getting charged around $0.125 /kWh.

Assuming 1% pool fee from Ethereum.org, plugging all this info into an online calculator says I will be negative $3/mo.

Do you think I would be really drawing that much power?

Is this even worth it?
