    It's safe to run 24/7. You will just use more power when idle and your temps will be higher as well. Make sure to adjust your fan speeds if you're going to be running it 24/7.

    Video card life is reduced statistically due to higher clocks at higher voltage which creates more heat which statistically means that the card's life is guaranteed to be shortened.  ;)  You decide whether or not that affects your definition of "safe".
