I have been looking everywhere for this issue but I still have not found a solution. My GPU is a gigabyte rx 570 and the fans do not spin. Whenever I put pressure on a certain spot on my GPU the fans finally will spin, but they will only spin when the pressure is applied. So I just can’t push down on it 1 time and the fans spin for as long as the pc is on but they just turn off if I let go of the GPU. Please someone help me I have been looking for a solution for about 5 months now and I just can’t play games anymore. Yes I have updated my bios and my GPU drivers

Sounds to me like a connection issue between the fan controller on the card's board. I wouldn't recommend taking it apart yourself, as you may void any warranty. I would contact the manufacturer and see if you're still within the window to get a replacement. Other than that, they may be able to direct you better on how to re-solder the connection (if they determine that is the issue).
