It seems as though the new Nvidia graphics drivers v591.86 have caused an issue with detecting my third fan on my gfx card.. and its not showing up in EVGA X1 Precision for turning on the fans ever time I boot.
as it was not an issue before..

I will downgrade to last version and report back...

EDIT:

nope a downgrade to v591.74 its still only showing 2 of three fans in both the
- EVGA X1 Precision
and
- GPUz (odd and half the sensors are missing...)

X-(

odd since the 3rd fan is spinning...

In GPU-Z, the third fan isn't detected (I'd never checked before). I ran the "PCI-Express Render Test" and checked my graphics card fans, all three are spinning.

The third fan used to be detected for me before in GPUz... and EVGA X1 app...
I am not sure why it is not now... Windows issue? driver issue? etc?

I think it's an Nvidia driver issue because you said it was detected before the driver update.

You're right to revert to the previous driver. I updated and physically checked all three fans, but I rarely use this system. I'll do a web search...

I tried rolling back to v591.74 the last driver update but that didn't help at all..
odd... maybe a Windows issue too...
well it was working before.

I just saw your previous edited post.

Try other monitoring software; that's what I'm going to do. I'll also check the Nvidia forum and Reddit (I like Reddit :) problems are reported quickly). I rarely use my desktop computer, but I don't want to fry my RTX graphics card.

Edit: Perform a DDU driver installation if you haven't already done so.

I never usually have a problem with a Nvidia gfx driver update so I don't bother with DDU though I keep a copy of that on hand too.

I use the best already... GPUz..
and its not showing up in EVGA X1 app I use to set the fan speeds manually..

I also never use ddu when I update the driver. I don't need it.

I'll keep an eye on the Nvidia forum and Reddit, and I'll post here if the problem is known and if there's a solution.

After a quick Google search, I found that monitoring software can't display the third fan because it's chained with a second fan. This is normal behavior.


However, according to this comment in the link below, only AIB partner software can display the third fan. This is what your EVGA X1 Precision software did before the bug.


I haven't installed my graphics card software yet, it's ASUS. I'll let you know the results as soon as I install it. I'm still using the latest Nvidia driver.

Since getting the graphics card, I'd never physically checked the fans—I completely forgot!

Thanks to you, I did that yesterday.

I'm going to leave the ASUS software installed because throughout the GPU's lifespan and ownership, you need to monitor the three fans from time to time; it's much easier to do with software than physically.

ooh so that is why it may be not showing now..??
Hmm.... it was showing me all three before for years...
all of a sudden its not showing all three in GPUz and EVGA X1 app....

ooh so that is why it may be not showing now..??
Hmm.... it was showing me all three before for years...
all of a sudden its not showing all three in GPUz and EVGA X1 app....
It's when two of the three fans are connected in a daisy chain that GPU-Z only shows two fans. This doesn't mean that all graphics cards with three fans have daisy-chained fans. If your GPU was showing 3 fans in GPU-Z, then the 3 fans are connected separately and you have a problem.

Yesterday, as I already mentioned, I tried GPU-Z, and then before going to sleep, I also tried HWInfo. The result was the same: only two fans were shown.

I installed the ASUS software for my graphics card. I now see all three fans listed. But two are daisy-chained because the software's graphical interface displays "fan speed (center)" and "fan speed (sides)" in the plural, and "fans" is also plural in my language. Therefore, the fans on each side are daisy-chained.

You have a problem, you should try DDU.

Why would you want to control each fan separately? One usually controls the temperature at which the fans start or stop and their speed. This is done for all the fans, not for each one separately.

For Nvidia GPUs no longer supported since driver version 581.XX, there's a new security driver. I got it via the Nvidia app. It's also available on the Nvidia website through the usual driver search.

You're right, but that's not the point. Since the latest Nvidia driver update, Melchior no longer has the three fans displayed in GPU-Z and the software for his EVGA graphics card.

It will probably be fixed at a future nVidia driver or Windows Update.
