Hi there, i bought asus gtx 1050, card without any power connector, its 75w

when i play a game graphic card fans are working fine, on desktop without game or other activities such as movies or youtube videos, fans are not working

is it normal?

graphic cards temperatures are very good on games and desktop, works good and silent

but should i set up fans for working everytime?

"but should i set up fans for working everytime?".

I guess you mean should you set up the GPU fans to run all the time?

The answer is "No" as that will cause uneccesary wear on the fan bearings when the GPU doesn't need active cooling.

The fans will automatically kick-in when the card approaches a certain temperature (60c I believe).
Leave it like that.
