I'm picturing OP holding GPU up to nose and snorting it for a high.
Honestly, though, the noise would be more my concern. My basement sounds like I have a jet engine in there.

I just took a big inhale from my MSI aero 1070 Gtx's. Still alive and well. Results may vary with different cards.
hahaha my amd almost killed me

also temperature can be an issue.. free heat on winter but on summer my room was at 30-32 °C.. I have a 6x GPU open rig and a room of 5x6m , it rise the temp of +4 C..

Haha, during summer there were at least 50 degrees in the room with the rig since I had constantly 35-40 degrees outside

How bad is breathing in air from GPU's?
? no bad air i know of comes off of GPU ...... just a lot of heat that might be bad over time .
like some one else said some place else about mining
Bullshit, the normal system with banks, banknotes, coins etcetc pollute much much more. Bitcoin is much greener.
I know it says Bitcoins ....
so mining in general is ok and no bad air .. are you sure there isn't some thing leaking in your house ? .... or are you asking to know ? .
if you can deal with the noise in the same room you sleep in, go for it , i can't and why i have a room in my houses basement sound proofed .
heated solder is also melting GPU's aren't.

The amount of sheer ignorance posted thus far is like looking at all the newbie posts asking if a 1070 can do 57MH/s on ethash.
Running one or 2 video cards at home most likely will not be the cause of your demise. Odds are you're more likely to get hit by lightning.
increase the number of cards, however, to a small farm and you are now getting higher particulate benzene, toluene, chlorobenzene, ethyl-benzene, xylene, styrene, benzaldehyde, and trimethyl-benzene in your air - especially if you don't have fresh air intakes.
While some of these chemicals occur naturally, the amount given off by PCBs as volatile organic compounds is multiplied by the number of devices being used as well as operating conditions like humidity, voltage and ambient temperatures.
I bought high quality VOC meter to monitor the air at my farm.
For myself, I run any new cards I get in an outdoor or ventilated setup for 2 months before putting them in a place with a lot less ventilation.
While a space heater may give off heat from warming resistive coils, it doesn't give off nearly as many VOCs as new carpet or a new video card does.

This. I moved my rig to the balcony because I felt dizzy after installing my mining farm in my room. May I add last time I felt dizzy was either from alcohol, I usually never feel this way otherwise. After moving it two days ago, I do not face the same dizzines, it is mostly gone.

Life is generally unhealthy, and you can die any moment due numerous reasons ..... if your mining rig air quality is you main concern - you are doing much much better than millions of ppl around the world!

I've made 2 rigs in my living room. Putting those there only during winter. 23 degrees, feeling perfectly well. I like it

I do had this when I got the gpu's new in box. When I used them on full load for mining a weird smell came from the gpu's. This weird chemical newness smell Smelled very chemical though/not good for your health smell. But was gone after a day. I think a ventilated room is always a good thing even when you are not mining.

Winter coming in the NE US. Getting ready to add some more GPU style home heating. Love it when a plan comes together
