Superflower 1000 No Fan

Ive installed a superflower 1000w psu and the fan isnt spinning, is that normal?? I have run 3d mark for about 30 seconds and stopped it as I didnt want to burn it out. I have a 4970k ( at stock ) and 2x r9 290 graphics cards.

Hey! As far as I know it only spins up when it reaches a certain temp.

My Corsair psu does this.

Yeah, Ive just been trolling the internet for info and apparently it hardly ever comes on. I just had a corsair 1050 hx blow up taking 1/2 my computer with it. A corsair rm100 doa so I was a wee bit nervous. Seems all good. Now, time to overclock this bugger

Thanks guys.

Yeah, the PSU has thermal control and a version of a no fan mode.
