Recently my pc have been crashing in games. No beep just instantly turning off. So I guessed it had to do something with overheating. And yes it was. My Gpu temp is around 80-90 deegres when it´s idle and not in a game. The fan have stopped working. And I have no idea why.

I have picked it out recently because I cleaned my pc but otherwise I haven´t touched it. ( the problem didn´t occur after I had cleaned it )
I don´t think my graphic card have a fan switch because it´s pretty old.
would appreciate if someone could help me

Thanks for reading

That's a v old card. I wouldn't be surprised if it has failed. Like I say, it shouldn't run that hot even without fans. You could try reapplying the thermal paste and taking it apart to check connections but you'd be better off upgrading it, even to a cheap 2nd hand one on ebay.
