I am just waiting for my GPU to break down... It is an AMD Radeon HD 6570... I have got it like 4 years. How long should this card last ? :)
 
Solution
From a mechanical failure point of view, the card should last indefinitely.
The most likely failure point would be the fan which can be replaced.

More likely, the card will become obsolete before it wears out.
It will last only until you want more graphics power for a game. Today, you can replace the card with a much stronger graphics card for $70 on up.
