because I will run my s3 overclocking all day and I'm afraid to die early

I purchased 9 S3s.  Of the 9, 8 are still functioning.  One died in January.  Here is how they are clocked:

S3_1: 218.75, running at 440GH/s.
S3_2: 200, running at 400GH/s
S3_3: 218.75, running at 440GH/s
S3_4: 237, running at 478GH/s
S3_5: 237, running at 478GH/s
S3_6: 218.75, running at 440GH/s
S3_7: 237, running at 478GH/s
S3_8: 250, running at 504GH/s

All of them are updated with kano's latest.  All of them run off EVGA 1300 G2 PSUs, 3 per PSU.  Recently I have noticed that a couple of them are starting to show "x" on a chip or two.  I might tear them down, clean them and apply new thermal paste if I can find the time.  I received my first S3s from batch 1 on 7/17/2014... so very nearly a year old.
