They claim their capacitors can endure over 10,000 hours of life—roughly 1.5 years—which seems surprisingly short for a PC. RIGHT? Let's take a look.

All parts stay active while sleeping. Power down only via hibernate or complete shutdown.

Capacitors allow the device to handle peak temperatures around 105°C or higher. Reducing the heat extends the life significantly, typically doubling it for every 10°C drop.

Does this suggest the motherboard could fail within a year or two?

In typical situations without heavy stress, it won't happen.
