Not possible. Software cannot kill hardware unless the hardware already has a design flaw (inadequate cooling etc).
Would be interesting to know if these dead cards were running at stock or overclocked.
I think the point is that regardless of whether software should be able to kill a GPU or not, if it exposes a hardware flaw that results in death, then it's still a problem. I remember back in the day there were reports about Furmark damaging GPUs.

Seems to be mostly EVGA cards affected? Not a good look.
Nvidia's unofficial retail arm and yes it's not a good look for them but by the time next generation of video cards roll around all will be forgotten/forgiven by most.Seems to be mostly EVGA cards affected? Not a good look.

A Twitch streamer I occasionally watch (LobosJr) had two EVGA 3090s die on him (months ago). The one he bought and the replacement for it. He was warning people away from them on his stream at the time. Seems they have major cooling problems. Though so do most 3090s since they're 350W+ cards, which is truly absurd, and have VRAM on the back getting very little cooling. No wonder they're cooking themselves to death when put under real stress.Seems to be mostly EVGA cards affected? Not a good look.
