Hello Guru's,
I have two Gigabyte 560 Ti in sli mode, but fans on one card stopped spinning months ago, but still operational. Only the card with the working fan gets a little warm after intense games, but not the fanless one. Should I replace fan or leave alon. Still get good performance, just concerned about the lack of fan use on second card.

You have the cards mixed up,its the fanless one getting hotter.

The one that the fan still spins gets hot during gaming. The broken fan is about 15-20 degrees cooler under load. I thought I just post this to see if anyone else has this issue. Both cards are working. Will need to get an after market fan for this card...

I think your card with the broken fan must be kaput if it is registering cooler.
Get it out and fix it. If possible.

**Update**
2nd card has two fans, one fan not spinning but second is spinning-reason way temps are normal. MSI Afterburner confirms 2nd card is indeed working. Will leave alon for now until the GTI 660 Ti comes out in August, or just exchange for the 560 Ti 448.

Which Gigabyte 560 Ti it is? This one? http://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-GeFor.../dp/B004KM49WO
If so, then the fan is MEANT to stop spinning. The Windforce fan stops and starts each of the fans in a specific order to minimize turbulence and reduce dust buildup. When I first used one, I thought something was wrong also... but working as intended.
Surprisingly actually works to keep dust out too...

Fanless one will overheat under any load unless you have some super crazy air flow. Are you sure it's working still?
