so is it the undervolting that is killing the cards?

I remember I ran my 290x (single card, just as a hobby) almost 24/7 at 80 C for months and month with no issues. But 100% STOCK.

prolly a combination of Overclock and undervolt causing to many amps to run thru the cards. Just a guess If your looking for longterm Overclock is not your friend

This is pretty new to me so I am trying to learn. So overclocking and undervolting can damage your card it seems.

I have read alot how people are undervolting their cards with Wattman and having the same if not better performance and using less power.

If overclocking can damage the card, does undervolting make it run cooler and with less intensity so therefore giving the card more life without affecting performance?

I have 2 XFX reference 480s, can anybody give me a good starting place for undervolting? Thanks
