Corsair TX650 fan won't spin?

I recently shut down my PC to check if my fan headers were connected properly (they were). Turned my PC back on and the PSU fan span for about 2-5 seconds then just stopped. In the 2 or so years I have had this PSU the fans spin up straight from booting. So I tried running MSI Kombustor at 100% and unigine heaven (ultra) load and the fans still won't move an inch but the PSU itself was not hot to the touch? Just worried/confused is all. Any advice would be appreciated thanks :)

If the PSU uses less than 50% load it will not spin.

this.

 

corsair does this for those noise haters.

We can't Benchmark like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to shove more GPUs in your computer. Like the time I needed to NV-Link, because I needed a higher HeavenBench score, so I did an SLI, which is what they called NV-Link back in the day. So, I decided to put two GPUs in my computer, which was the style at the time. Now, to add another GPU to your computer, costs a new PSU. Now in those days PSUs said OCZ on them, "Gimme 750W OCZs for an SLI" you'd say. Now where were we? Oh yeah, the important thing was that I had two GPUs in my rig, which was the style at the time! They didn't have RGB PSUs at the time, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big green ones.

It says on Corsair website.

 

 
Advanced temperature-controlled fan with Zero RPM mode

The fan doesn't even spin at low loads, so you'll enjoy virtually silent operation. And when you're pushing it hard, the double ball bearing 140mm fan adjusts its speed according to temperature, so it only works as hard as it needs to.
