What are the risks of custom water cooling failing? I need to understand this before it's too late to save my GTX 1070.

4 possible choices.
1) Get new fans, repair the GPU, swap all fans, not just the one that's failed.
2) Send a return via RMA through the store, depending on their warranty.
3) Request a manufacturer RMA if it's still valid.
4) Visit a nearby repair shop and pay upfront for any service. Likely a 30-day warranty against repairs.
Ultimately, the best choice is to fix the fans or risk losing the GPU.

Your odds fall somewhere between 1% and 100%.
It’s impossible to determine exactly how likely your failure rate will be.
Even with the probability known, it might change tomorrow or in ten years.
What does saving your 1070 mean?

It's really not possible to give a definite answer about your failure rate. Even with the probability known, it might happen tomorrow or in 10 years.
What do you mean saving your 1070?
Your GPU is running at 92°C, so it could help. What custom parts would you recommend?

When operating at 92C there might be another problem, and adding liquid cooling could not resolve it. Moreover, the expense would exceed the value of the cards.

The main concern is understanding why it's operating at 92C. Should we check if it's being overclocked? If yes, we should reset it to its original settings and test again. If not, then are there any fans that aren't working anymore? We need more details to evaluate the situation properly.

rubix_1011 :
The bigger question is 'why is it running at 92C'? Is it overclocked? If so, reset to stock speeds and re-test. If not, then do you have fans that are no longer functional?
Need more information to help assess the problem.
no over clock and my gpu hit a toasty 98 deg c, not using an overclock, and it is a blow card that is a year old here is a link

When did these temperatures start reaching their highest levels? Is there an image of your situation? Has the card had all the dust removed from the cooler?

Do you have a picture of your case? Has the card been completely free of dust from the cooler?
Two days ago, the dust was fully removed.

Yes, the cooling fans on the GPU are working properly.
