They all just suddenly turned off i never had this problem first the second,then the bottom,then the top not at the same time the one in the back too i wasn't paying attention. I felt my pc was hot the other day but i ignored it now today i kept hearing a sound idk if it was the cpu but it kept blowing loud up and back down and then that's when i noticed it's because the fans were starting to turn off i knew it, it usually never gets that hot. They were probably already off the other day too i didn't look. So i cleaned them as they were actually very dirty but they are still off rgb still working though lol.

 

Side note: I play a game called VRChat and there are a lot of hackers is it possible for them to mess my pc up in anyway besides crashing me? I don't ever give them a reason either i always leave the map or ignore them.

Where are the fan headers plugged in? Check and make sure that the connectors aren't loose.

Is the fan hub plugged into the motherboard? If so, which motherboard fan header?

Have you tried a different cable from the psu? Did you check if the hub is plugged into the motherboard? 

Many graphics card fans turn off when the gpu is below 60c for lower noise. As long as temps are fine, there's no need to worry.

Took me a bit to find it no fans are plugged into the motherboard it was in between the cpu and back fan. I have tried different cables still the same there all connected on the same wire plus this end piece i tried plugging into the fan motherboard it turned the pc off lol and it wont turn on if i leave it plugged.

Are you referring to the floppy drive power connector from the psu? 

I'm asking about an rpm signal fan cable that should connect the fan hub to the motherboard.

Oooh this is the only power cable for the hub. Are you saying i should buy a double sided 4 pin connector to try? I would think connecting straight to the psu would of been better but if you think it might work on the motherboard i'll give it a try

The fan hub needs to be connected to the psu for power. There should be no additional / aftermarket cable needed. 

The fan hub also needs to be plugged into the motherboard to report rpm and allow for fan control if supported. 

What's the fan hub model name? Do you have access to the user manual?

I put it together myself, the fans came pre installed with this case. It basically looks like that is there a way i can find the actual model number or name i'm having trouble finding it. That one i found has some minor differences.

It looks like there's no rpm readout that connects to the motherboard so that's why you don't see any rpm. 

As for powering the fans, make sure that the fan hub power connector isn't loose and that there aren't any loose pins in the molex power connector. If the fans still aren't spinning, the hub may be defective.

If the case is under warranty, you can try contacting customer support for a replacement.
