Hi, I have a XFX Radeon 7950. I have been Litecoin mining for extended periods of time. I turn up my fan speed to 100% when I am doing it however, and the temperature is around 70-75 degrees Celsius. And don't worry, I'm not one of those people who buys 3 or four AMD cards at a time and just mines. I'm a gamer just like the majority of you. But because I use this for gaming, I want the card to last as long as possible. I just want to know, am I degrading the life span of my card? Thanks!
