Graphic cards/components reliability after crypto minning
There are many not very well-founded discussions about their reliability.

Hm, seems to be a very normal computer component, not unlike say, a server mainboard. Knowledge on the reliability of those after continuous use should transfer very smoothly.

I propose to skip electrolytic caps in this discussion as its reliability is already well described.

Like all other components. It's not like we've been building complex computer equipment for only 5 years or so; caps might be more in public discussion, but they're not &quot;special&quot; in terms of being considered in terms of reliability. So, yeah, you should include capacitors, RAM, SMPSes, the PCB itself, … everything.

Any technically/physically focused comments and sources describing components service life welcomed

You're starting at the wrong end. Learn how systems composed of components fail, then you'll learn which components you need to model better. Really, looking at individual components (not even classes of components: you're literally looking at a single type of capacitor from a single vendor!) before understanding failure models is like trying to understand  the rainforest by looking at every beetle.
