Yeah, I've been treating GPUs gently for quite a while now, since we've been having some sort of shitty market conditions for them for what feels like ages now.
Which primarily means never run them at full load, so upscaling, lower settings and slight undervolt to keep them at max 80-85% load and under 80°C.
