No, but the lower the core temp the better, the GPU will later longer as a result.
my fan is set to auto and is at 46% ...i cannot even hear it ! i'd much rather that
than the cards blazing out at 80% !!!!!!
I don't think you read mastergamer's post.
The voltage regulators are cooled with the air stream the fans take in. The slower you run the fan the hotter they get.
If you are overclocking a card, your VRM is overheating in an exponential scale the more voltage you add.
A graphics card will probably never die in normal use from a toast GPU just as a CPU chip wont.
It might weaken from overclocking due to electromigration but it will never die.
It's the capacitors, VRM, chokes and other components that are the most likely to break.
please note that the card is factory modded to have a heat sink on the vrm's !!!!!! the fan speed is the same as before!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the air flow is no more or less, the cards have two 120mm fans directly able them too,
the only thing that has changed is the gpu temperature ! geeeeeeeeeeeeez you guys ....
