Hello all,

I just upgraded my MB to ASRock Z97 Pro4 and CPU to Intel i3-4170. After I replaced MB and CPU connected everything start PC everything was working fine but I noticed that GPU fan is not spinning even tho GPU was working and showing picture on the screen normaly. I was checking and heatsink is getting hotter and hotter so to prevent GPU damage I shouted down PC replaced new MB with old one connected everything and GPU fan started to spin so it is not jamed or broken. I have my old AMD GPU sitting on top of my desk so I gave it a try (As I remember this GPU was working just fine) but I got same problem on new MB.


I was trying to find a solution for this but I can't find it. Any one knows the possible solution?

Thanks in advance
