Hey all,
 
My hybrid-cooled GTX 1080 Ti FTW is running at ~40 degrees under ~90% load. Does anyone have a ballpark figure (from experience with previous EVGA cards) what kind of life-span I could expect with those numbers? Assume the card runs 24/7, 365 days a year, forever. The workload is split between say six hours of gaming and 6-12 hours of hobby mining on the side when I'm not working on my PC. I'm also considering upgrading the PSU and running a pair of these bad boys in SLI just to be super indulgent; how much hotter would two liquid-cooled cards theoretically get instead of one? (my full tower has pretty good airflow and the processor is also liquid-cooled). Anyways, I look forward to hearing what you all have to say!
 
Best,
 
Brad

Nobody can tell you how long the cards will last. 2nd card should run around the same temps as your current card.

Of course, I was just hoping someone would have some kind of insight. The temperature stays consistent, always, which is as much as I can ask for I suppose (so long as it isn't crazy high).

The GPU's are designed to run for the full duration of their warranty at ~80C. Using Hybrids exhausting out of the case, you should see little difference in temps. Put in perspective, running at 90% load at 40C is really not that much different from just idling as far as durability. You're more likely to have a mechanical issue with the pump versus a failure of the electronics.

Yup.. pump will go long before the cards. Temp will rise in the 60-70 range modt likely before going.
