If there was truly all of these problems, cards like the 8800GTX would be failing like mad now.
Actually the articles say the G80 (8800GTX, old 8800GTS 640, 320) is unaffected by these manufacturing defects. You are right to question the validity of the articles however, noting the sources. Some Internet 'news' sites will take a story with a grain of truth in it and embellish it to gain some 'hits' on their site. Mo' hits, mo' cash. And it's all about the cash.
