I've also had some eGPU fans start to die, without being super obvious. At least with the eGPUs we've got, there's no user accessible monitoring of fan speed, or any kind of reporting/error system, so when they start to die, you may not know until things start to overheat and shut down. If I see/hear them hesitate on startup, or seem to take a while to get up to speed, I replace them proactively. You can usually swap them in five minutes, if you've got right replacement part.
