Had a Lketc dragon PSU completely crap out.  It was during winter I would say under 50 degrees everyday.  I did have it since first released though... so it stuck with me a long time.  

Never OC'ed just ran stock settings.

What psu?
was the  room at 50f
what did internal temps read?

the winter 150 days or 90 days .

And the psu failed but a replacement psu works?

Your gear would be psu failure.

More data.  please

Good idea for a thread!

I've never had an ASIC fail so far, but if you're interested I'd be happy to post the speeds I've pushed them to without issue.

Frequency doesn't kill chips, voltage and heat does. The only way frequency can damage hardware is if the power delivery is garbage and already close to it's limits at stock frequency, as is the case with KNC's junk. That would lead to dead VRMs, etc, but the chip wouldn't be the weak link. Shitty power supplies with bad ripple suppression are also hardware killers.

give me details on your success.

this will need a lot of data to come close to show any failure numbers with any shot of success.

Like I ran  2 s-5's at freq 393 and 400 with good cooling  for a month zero failure.  Sounds like enough info.  No it is not.

 I am missing
 psu  used
room temp
 asic temp
 pool used    all missing
