Fans do not last forever. Presumably the longer you run them at high speeds, the shorter the fan's lifespan will be.

Higher fan speed from an external table-top fan.

Most people run their cards at 90% fan speed and have no issues. I'd imagine higher temps are worst than high fan speed

I'm wondering whether one should go for higher fan speed or higher heat in trying to get the longest life span out of a miner. I currently have two 5830s running at 67C with fans at 76% and I'm wondering if it's better to run the fan harder or let the cards go a little hotter... Any opinions?
