Well I guess I kinda jumped the gun on this one. So I think everythings fine. After some testing and research, I realized that this card has a feature called "fan stop" where the fans don't spin unless the the gpu reaches around 45c (even if you force them to spin through software.) After...

Not overheating as far as I'm aware. The card idles at 35c even without the fans, I'm a bit concerned about stressing the card because the fans aren't working properly. I can't remember exactly (and I can't check right now but I will later) but I think the card utilization was also really low...
