GPU fan is not automatically worknig at any temp, i have to manually operate it to work

awesomesauce85

So i have a quite a stupid question, when i turned off my pc for a long time, why does my GPU fan not working automatically at any temp? And like, i have to operate it manually or move the slider at a higher percentage for it to work and, when i turn off my pc for a short time, the fan starts to work in a little while, why is it like that? BTW, GPU is R9-280x Sapphire Dual X 3GB.

Some GPUs have what's called a stay off, unless it's HOT feature.

In such case you'll see the fans spin up during boot-up and during 5mins+ of gameplay. This is to keep operations smooth until you hit 40 - 70% useage.

Can't be sure if that's the issue for you but, I got nervous a few years back when I discovered this with my card. It'll only spin when it's hot enough (check temp programs and see).
