I'd rather get the best hashrate out of my gpu to get closer to my ROI than been worry about life span, your card can't last a lifetime for mining because difficultly grows bigger every year meaning at one point it will become obsolete, avoid high overclocking and use the most stable settings possible, that's all you'd ever need

There is an issue with this line of thought, do you maximize the residual value of a GPU? or cook the card? Probably the two best answers to this question are the 480 GB nitro+ sapphire card and the EVGA 1080 ti. Both have held up in value, still do a decent amount of hashing and were not too bad cost wise. The 1080ti is particularly noteworthy because it has/had good mining flexibility.

One other point to note is that higher efficiencies (W/Mhs) are at the lower MSI AB settings. There is a message there.

Yes exactly i still have 1070 and and rx470/480/570/580 working many years i never pushed them to max.every year i change paste and they are in good shapes.
If you see cards burnt in black and fans destroyed it is people who are running for ROI fast i guess. otherwise cards are very solid i never had in my hand burnt mosfets how people manage burn them. once i saw memory chips were burnt into black, i wonder what kind of OC they did to get memory chips get burnt so badly.

Hi batsonxl I'm running a rx580 8gb memory gpu at 2200 Mclock, this is the only way I am able to achieve 30.45 MH on the GPU without BIOS modding, is this a safe memory clock overclocking for long term mining?

i dont know which miner you are you sing. Without bios mode im doing 480/580 30.60mhs on phoenix miner with this : -cclock 1150 -cvddc 900 -mclock 2070 -mvddc 920 rxboost 1 -mt 1 driver version is 20.11.1 some gpu can run lover voltage.
