Do you have any software like Precision X or MSI afterburner? If you do then make sure the settings are correct for the fans. If you do not then attempt to download Precision X by EVGA and set your own fan curve and see if the fans on slot 2 operate then. If they work fine then you likely have other software affecting your fan speeds. If they still do not work then you can attempt to reinstall drivers and we can go from there.


But the problem does not sound like a faulty GPU as both cards work fine in slot 1, but not slot 2 which suggests there is software affecting that slot. If it was a faulty GPU then the fans would never turn on, even in slot 1.

Slot 2 works fine, I put GPU 1 in slot 2 and it worked. I used AB with manual fan and GPU 2 doesn't work at all. Ive done the following in order of initial install of both cards:
 
PCIE 1 - GPU 1, PCIE 3 - GPU 2 (Both worked fine then GPU 2 fans stopped working)
PCIE 1 - GPU 2 (fans worked once and then when I put GPU 1 on PCIE 3 it stopped working)
PCIE 1 - GPU 2, PCIE 3 - GPU 1 (GPU 1 fans work, GPU 2 doesn't)
PCIE 1 - GPU 1, PCIE 3 - GPU 2 (GPU 1 fans work, GPU 2 doesn')
 

Oh... I misread what you said...

It would likely be a faulty GPU. They can also offer a solution in the case if there is one, but this can be a fairly easy to identify problem as it's probably a faulty fan controller. You can contact EVGA using 1-888-881-3842 and request an EAR RMA which would give you free shipping. I would reccomend calling over submitting it through Email or online because it's easier and you would not have to sybmit a ticket before applying. So just give them a call now or whenever as they have a 24/7 tech support and they should get the paperwork through on the 5th or 6th as tommorows a holiday.

You can do the cross ship through the phone and the 30 days doesn't matter so much. A few things to do before you call are registering your card to your account and also uploading the invoice or proof of purchase. You can do this at the link below. You also want the cards serial number for when you call. When you do call go straight to the technical support and they will be able to assist. Remember that you have 14 days from when the package arrives to when you get it scanned to go back and you will be required to drop it off at a UPS store. You will also be required to provide a credit card as collateral, they should only bill you for $1 and refund it within minutes, but they would bill you the retail price if you decided to keep the card. You will also be required to sign for the package.
