if i overclock and temp stays the same will the card not degrade faster?

Also I will have to make sure that the temps stay the same (or lower) on all of the card so it wont degrade faster if the above question is true.How do I make this sure ?



so if I double the voltage and overclock with that voltage as much as i can and all temps stay same will it be stable and not degrade faster?

UPDATE
i will overclock as much as possible so i just wanna make sure that only the temp can influence how stable the overclock is and the card degradation???
 
Solution
increasing voltage does increase the stress on the traces of the gpu, so in turn DOES reduce the life of the card regardless of heat. This is fact, so nothing to doubt on this subject. Overclocking whilst mining is honestly less worth it than most people think due to the risk vs. the gain. just do a mild overclock so you arent burning out your cards and monitor temps from there
The hotter it is, the faster it will degrade. any type of overclocking WILL increase the temps, and the only way temps would go down would be if your room has become colder, or you have changed the way the airflow in your case goes.

with overclocking you just need to make sure each part that is being overclocked stays within it's safe temperature range as stated by the manufacturer
 
Cpu/gpu degradation is directly related to the amount of heat the chip is required to dissipate. If your temps stay the same, you should see no advanced degradation unless you are running a significantly higher voltage (which is what typically causes the heat).
 


so what else influences the overclock except temperature?I keep doubting it is directly voltage because if Im correct then voltage only harms as a side effect aka byproduct which is heat.

And i want to overclock as much as possible but only the gpu because i will gpu mine scryptcoins for profit.
I will underclock cpu and all the rest for less power usage

can you please explain how exactly does voltage increase stress on the traces of the gpu?
