Hello,
I have noticed today that for some reason my GPU temp is really high around 95°C so I installed Precision app and it shows that my GPU fans does not spin for some reason. I tried to change auto to 100% speed and its still 0rpm. I check fans connector on pcb and thats ok too. Can someone please give me advice what might be wrong? Thanks 
 
Also I noticed I put this in wrong forum, sorry

    Seems that the fan controller went bad..An EVGA GTX 1060 FTW (06G-P4-6268-KR) has a 3-year warranty..Register your card if you haven't done so already and Contact EVGA about setting up an RMA if it's still under warranty.
     
    Also see the EVGA Warranty Questions section of the forums.

    Hello, thank you for you reply. Bought my gpu in 2017 so its out of warranty now. Do you think fan replacement might help or whole controller is gone? I also tried to put it in different PC but fans are still dead.

    I would bet money on the fan controller.

    You could buy a Mini 4 Pin GPU to 4 Pin Fan Adapter and make the GPU fans run off of a motherboard fan header..That would take the GPU fan controller out of the picture.

    You can also consider buying an aftermarket cooler like the kraken or accelero.  There are also many other options than those two if you look around.
