I recently got a 3080 XC3 hybrid.  In the documentation it lists "Full control of both VRM and Radiator fan with EVGA's Precision X1 software."  However in Precision it only lists 2 fans, one of which just stays at 0.  The 1 working seems to be the shroud fan.  How many fans should it show listed in Precision?  I assume it should be 3 in total.  Can anyone else with a hybrid card confirm if this is the case and if they can control the fans via Precision?

    which version of Precision X1 are you using & did you download the standalone X1 ?
     
    the radiator fans - might count as 1 fan in X1 - I don't know

    Do both your radiator fans spin under load. If so, PX1 will have 1 indicator for the card fan and 1 for both radiator fans.

    I downloaded the most recent standalone version 1.1.2.  It makes sense that the Rad fans would count as one.  But there doesn't seem to be any control via Precision.  The 2nd fan just stays at 0 %, 0 RPM.

    After some more digging, Fan 1 is the radiator fans and fan 2 is the shroud fan which doesnt come on until under heavy load.

    Correct. The zero rpm happens for the fan on the card and the rad fans use a splitter and would read as one fan on their own.
