I'd be lest worried about the GPU itself dying and more the fans running 24/7 at higher speeds. Still, a decent fan should last for years even running at 100% PWM - and most GPU's come with fairly length (often lifetime) warranties.
I would love to let my 1080 Ti be put to use when I'm not playing games on it, cryptocurrenty mining was fairly profitable until a month or so ago and now the power usage (even at $0.10/KWh) isn't covered by the returns after paying the tax bill (I could always file the revenue under my LLC and deduct the electricity expenses and even deprecate the hardware cost, but without a dedicated rig and power monitoring it's a tax audit nightmare waiting to happen).
