So I just finished my build and got a little odd set up: I dont have enough fan ports on the mobo so I hooked up one of the fans(arctic p12) to the gpu fan header (got a rx 570 strix with a 4 pin fan header on it) but now under load only the arctic fan spins, the one on my gpu doesnt.

I dont want to tear the whole thing apart as its an itx case with at least 1 hour of work put into the cable management please help

For most cards, gpu fans won't spin until they hit a certain temperature.

I know that, so i ran a bit of furmark and stopped it when the gpu hit 80. The fan connected to the gpu were spinning, but the gpu fans were not spinning.

Try installing the brand version OC software. Like for EVGA cards it is EVGA Precision XOC.
