This is a problem that started with 1000-series cards back in the day and apparently it is inherited to the 2000-series as well, which is really annoying.
You can "fix" this by making your own custom fan curve with whatever program you like to use. I have following fan curve for my 2080 gaming oc:
0-45C = 0%
45C -> 70C = 30% -> 50%
70C -> 90C = 50% -> 100%
So at 45C the fans start at 30% fan speed, rising up to 50% fan speed when the temps are 70C and from there they rise up even further. The good thing about 2080 gaming oc is that it's quite cool card, temps being 66-67C at max with that fancurve.
Same problem here, but with RTX 2080 Gaming OC, fans try to spin when hitting almost 60 Grad?! and they fail and try again and again with really annoying noise.

One can easily fix this by doing a custom fan curve with any little program that is capable of doing so. An example of a fan curve that does not have the problem present, because it will never use any fan percentages that are between 0% and 29%, thus skipping the problematic fan% range.
Here the fan will not run at all until the temps hit 50C. When that temp is reached, the fan will start at 30% instantly, skipping the "re-spin" fan percentages and will reach 50% when the temp is 70C. After that it just goes to 100% at 100C which is outside the operating temperatures of my 2080 gaming oc as it will stay below 70C with this fan curve.

Same issue here, first I thought my card was a defective, but I find this forum. So it's really annoying that they can't fix it. Hope Gigabyte know about this.

Although the problem is somehow fixed by a software curve, the problem still remains.
Why do you need to install a software for a hardware thing to work properly ?
Any video card fan should work on auto without any problems.
The problem is that rtx 2080 TI founders edition PCB has 2 fans, with a separate controller for fans and light, but gigabyte used a fan controller on the pcb, which powers up all 3 fans thru 4 wires.
The problem is the same on gtx 1000 series, you can find gigabyte fan assemblies opened on internet if you search a bit.
That makes me think that the fans are improperly powered for low RPM.
This is an improper implementation and the RPM is detected only by one fan, usually the one under the power cable connectors. If you stop that one the other fans will ramp up speed, but if you stop the others the speed will not ramp up.
I don't see any movement from them to fix this problem, at least by a firmware, to make fans start at higher RPM on auto, and you all look at this like is not a problem.
It is a problem because if you install other OS like linux Aorus Engine is not available there, you only have the drivers and the fans should work properly by themselves, not pushed by a software.
I will give them 2 more weeks to fix this. In my country I can rma product because is not running according to specs, and that fan is not running normally like on the other cards, especially that they advertised, on their page, that 3d active fan.
On my card, on auto, if the fan doesn't reach 40% speed is just tuning on and off, in intervals of a second or lower.

No doubt there is a design problem, but I don't think it is related to RPM detection on one fan. This is not uncommmon to have a master fan for RPM feedback and all other fans move with it. I believe you should expect the other fans will speed up if you stop the master fan. This is because the controller believes it is not spinning when it should be and it increases the duty cycle of the PWM to get it up to the target speed. You can buy fan hubs like this for your computer. I have one and all my Noctua fans speed up and slow down properly. One of the fans is the designated master and its sense pin is connected to the Chassis Fan header on the mobo. The fan hub is powered by a SATA power cable so the mobo fan header is not overloaded (the hub supports up to 8 fans). I think Gigabyte's spin-up algorithm needs to be improved and 5c hysteresis must also be added. This could be fixed in BIOS, I believe. I'm curious to know the manufacturer, model number, and exact specs of these fans. I would also like to see if they would work ok on a different controller, for example by unplugging them from the gpu and connecting them to the motherboard. Then we can determine if the problem is with the fans or with the controller.

I pointed out the way that the fans are connected, because is the cheapest solution. Asus on their strix cards have 3 fans connected to the pcb with 6 wires
The funny thing is that my 2080 Ti windforce OC has 2xFAN connectors on PCB, but only one used. I checked with a multimeter to see if they have common pins and it seems that they are different, except 2 pins probably +-12V. At the moment I think that they wanted to make cheaper card, and they didn't bother to split those 3 fans between those 2 connectors.
Same problem here with RTX 2080 Gaming OC. Will try to fix this with a curve in MSI Afterburner. Although for a top of the line product users shouldn't be looking for workaround solutions.
