So I have a radeon hd 5850

Its base clock=725 mhz
memory Clock=1000 mhz

I've overclocked base clock=900 mhz
memory clock=1150 mhz

the fan speed is at 100%

and the temp of my graphic card is under 73 C when I used heaven although its like 60-65 when I play games.
I haven't increased the voltage.My question is how long will my graphic card last now.I recently started overclocking because my graphic card couldn't hang on with the new games.My graphic card is 4 years 8 months old and I just started overclocking a week ago.Could anyone give me the approx lifetime left on this graphic card before I need to get a new one if I don't change the settings?

No one can possibly tell you how long it'll last. It varies-my 6 month old card died a couple days ago without OC'ing.

But as long as you dont mind the sound of fans at 100% and the temperature is perfectly fine. I believe the throttle temp is 95*C but high temps of course shorten lifespan.

3 days...
It isn't possible to tell you, it can last 10 years or die tomorrow.
