Nvidia Founders Edition fan quality

Does anyone have any experience with nvidia founders card fans going bad? I'm curious because I bought a used 3060ti in mint condition but my only question mark is the fans. I would have no trouble replacing them if they go bad but having an estimated timeline would help. Any tips on prolonging the fan life? Thanks in advance! :)

Wouldnt worry about it given their track record. They arent like msi.
Just buy a new card in 5 years. Could try to buy another cooler or perhaps a bad card to keep a spare set.

Thats good to know. I wasn't totally sure of their track record honestly. Even in my experience MSI fans last a long ass time. I have had 2 of their cards and my dad runs a 7 year old 970 thats still kicking. Ill just make sure to keep it cool and clean.
