So I gather I need at least say 5 monoliths to make it worthwhile?(I am talking about robotoid IIIs by the way,if it makes a difference)
No. Consider having 4 monoliths, producing 900 of each resource. Adding a 5th monolith will increase production by 25% (as 2700 is 25% of 10800). Adding a Robotoid III increases production by 30% (or 3240, more than 2700). So, it is better to build a Robotoid. Sure, it takes 1 more turn to build it, but it is worth it, and it evens out in a small number of turns (less than 1 year IIRC).
