Piss poor LTC Hash Rate

Also, running 90%+ fan speed will cause it to die in < 3 months.

Speaking in absolutes, eh? There is no guarentee that someone's card fan will die with speeds >90% for extended periods of time. Does it increase probability, sure, but not to the point where it's guaranteed to happen.

you can nitpick that's fine. Let me know when you have something valuable to add to the discussion.

My XFX DD 7950 had a fan die after running it for 3 weeks.

I have also had 7 fans die on 18 different gpus in 6 months; and I was running them around 75% load. Where's your statistics?

oh, and there's only one way to spell the word guarantee.

See? I can nitpick too.

I have a 4850 that has been running @ 100 percent fan load for years, still works fine.

I think it comes down to individual cards, and the quality of components. There is no such thing as knowing when a piece of computer hardware will break. Some of them last forever, some break in a month. I don't think you can draw conclusions from that type of range.
