I was hoping if somebody could help me. Just purchased a 2nd hand EVGA GTX 780ti sc acx which seams all good boost too 1127mhz wit about 1.16 - 7 but at times 1.20v and Max temps of 71-72'c at 70% fan speed. I decided to have a look at the ASIC quality and got a shock when I see 59.4%! I understand how the ASIC works (e.g leakage and needing more voltage to remain stable which produces more heat and might lower VRM lifespan).

I don't intend on overclocking the card just yet as I game on 1080p and just brought the card for Max eye candy and future updrade to 1440pp. My concerns are whether if this has/will reduce the lifespan on the card as its 2 year old already. Previous owner water cooled and overclocked to 1228mhz and swears it was stable at 1.212v for 1 andhalf years which in my opinion is v good. Or is it ?

Also I feel the temps are quite a bit hotter than I would like. If I lock the fan at 60% and run valley temps peak at 80-82c power target at 96% I know bench marks run hot but bf4 does the same. Is this normal for this GPU, cooler as my previous card 770 lightning overclocked to 1320mhz and never went above 70c at the same fan speed.

Your opinion on what you would do if you were in my situation and whether you would sell or keep the card would be appreciated.

ASIC quality is not directly related to overclocking on individual cards. Some cards have terrible ASIC quality and still overclocks nicely. It's all in the silicon lottery. I'd say keep it.

GTX 960 EVGA 4GB SC - ASIC of 83%. GPUZ says better than 97.5%, but I find that hard to believe.

My previous one was an EVGA GTX 750 1GB. 73% ASIC.

I guess they don't necessarily save the crappy chips till the end. This is the 980Ti I got 2 weeks ago. Not bad for end of the production line. :D
