Finally got my new build together. Everything boots fine but only 2 of 3 fans are spinning on my Toxic. Anyone else have this problem or any ideas? RMA is a last resort. I could take it apart but what are the chances of a connection coming loose. Any suggestions?

tbh that cooler is beastly enough that 2 of three fans will be more than enough for any heat a 270x will dish out. So some gaming while you decide what to do won't hurt.

I think the card has one fan header, definatly check that. Not worth taking apart, better to RMA. Some shops will do an advanced ship so you are not out anytime from a card.

There are 2 fan headers but a splitter for 2 fans. The connection is under the shroud. I'll install games this weekend and put some load on it to see what happens.
