yes, i know that simply running your graphic card will slowly destroy it, but will running shadowplay everytime i use my computer (which is a lot) burn down the shadowplay chip on my graphic card (im using a GTX770 if that important for you). i will probably switch shadowplay from directX mode to desktop mode soon, because i have some applications that run in open GL, that i want to record (aka always have shadowplay on, because im lazy and dont want to turn it on and off all the time) will that burn down the chip faster or something, because ive never seen anyone else do it

 

if you want to know my temperatures, here it is

 

idle temp: 32 C

avg temp: about 40-45 C (on the games that i normally play :D)

max temp: 60 C (on really demanding games)

 

anyway, i dont use ANY custom fans, on the CPU or anything, i only use the stock R4 case fans, the stock CPU cooler (intel core 4690k), and the stock graphic card cooler (gigabyte GTX 770 2GB OC edition), and i get these really low temperatures, according to the internet.

i dont know why i said that here, i just think that its funny, also im going to overclock as soon as i find it nessesary

You will probably buy a new card before it dies.


Besides:
It is the regular main chip that almost everything is on, Including Shadowplay.

are you sure, i mean it looks really hungry, with its 60 fps and everything

 

Chips are not that fragile. Don't worry, lots of youtubers use it for recording and I've never seen or heard a chip getting ruined by shadowplay usage. Just use it, it's awesome!

i do videos, and my OC card makes the games glitch out, like all the time (which i found most entertaining) so i have a shadowplay folder of about 100 GB as of right now, with about 50 clips, so i have a lot to edit, and i need to capture every moment

 

edit: 88 videos, and i delete most of my videos when i upload them to youtube
