unfortunately i noticed one of the fan on my GPU stopped working, is there a fix i can hopefully try on ? or i should send the card back and see if it can be repaired ? owned the card less than a year only, the fan on the left is not spinning as shown on the ss, any help would be appreciated! thanks!

Check first. When you play games for a period of time, does it spins?

There is a few ways to go about it.

1. Send it back for repairs
2. If you intend to troubleshoot it yourself by opening up (if there is no waranty seal) check if the fan connector dropped out? Only take out if the fan connector is out of reach. Most of the gpu fan connectors are found at the sides of the gpu.
3. Most expensive method, change to custom water cooling.
