-Today, when I started my PC, the right fan of my graphics card (Gtx 760) fan start and stop right after. When the right one stopped the left one start going very fast. The temp are ok not more than 40*c in idle.

-Just after, the left fan start to slow down and they both start going at the same speed. Now everything look and sound normal.

-I don't know if its the first time one of the fan take a long time to start. Because since I have this PC, the fan always go full speed and slow down right after (I think this is normal), but since 3 weeks sometime it take half a minute to slow down.

I precise, everything work fine when the fans go back to the normal speed. Even gaming

What can cause this ?
 
Solution
this is normal, as the graphics card is turning off the second fan, to save its lifespan, when the card doesn't need it. when it is on heavy load, it kicks on and helps to cool the GPU.

And I just restart my PC , an both fan started at the same time and don't stop. Maybe because my PC was still hot.
