Everything you just said is total nonsense. This idea that you are going to "wear out" a GPU is something people started saying when they were obviously bitter about not being able to find GPUs and seeing them being resold later for more than retail after they had been used for mining. There is nothing to back this up unless something melts.


by wear out means losing power/heat efficiency

you absolutely can wear out a GPU with excessive mining.


That's not how electronics work.

Do you think the copper wiring in your house also wears out?
