check your psu....or try your card in a pc with a good 500w psu. the builder series from corsair is not the best of psu s

try and see if the igpu is working. if it does, than it surely is your card

seems so....just sweep the current drivers clean and reinstall it again.

the most recent drivers from nvidia are a bit buggy. use 31XXXX or32XXXX ..drivers if you have those

ha ha ha....your card should still be under warranty, so you can always rma it (if its required)

sorry for you man.....gpu fan not working is a problem with your card itself.

try and clean the fan thoroughly, see if it works.

or else you will need to ram your card

does it matter if fans work or not? if i play games at max will it burn down?
