Hi,

I noticed that when my gpu has low temps and/or the fan speed isnt set higher than about 50%, the closest fan to the output ports is not spinning.
Is this a problem of the card, or just a feature from gigabyte? My gpu is gigabyte r9 270x windforce x3 2GB non bf4 edition.

Thanks in advance!

Best to ask Gigabyte support about this quoting your serial no. They know best how their cards / coolers are 'meant' to work.

What I can say is that if the temps are ok and performance is fine too, then its probably a design feature to reduce noise-- but I may be wrong.

Yes, the 3 fans were supposed to work together.
I also found the problem, it seems that the fan wasn't properly connected to the white 3pin female conector. After I pushed them together, it started working alright!
