There was a bad update with the crimson update causing the Fans to stop or work on 10% at maximum and it may be the case in you..
the blackout may be too possible, onl if you have a crappy PSU

If you had a Power outage and the power came back on, there very well could have been a surge when the power was restored. If you not plugged inot any kind of Surge protector or a chep insffective one, it may be fried.

I don't know about that particular Card, but I have a GTX 980 and the fans don't even work unti the GPU reaches a certain Temp.

The GTX 960 is an Nvidia card so the "Crimson Update" is totally irrelevant anyway.

If your 3 month old GPU is not working RMA it. It would be in your best interest not to speculate as to the cause, because if you figure it out, it might be something that would void the warranty. But if you don't look into it, you won't know when the ask you why you're asking for an RMA.
