What method did you use for cleaning it  out ? ?
1st thing i would check is all connections to the MBoard...

You may have blown off a MBoard jumper then...check the Owner's Manual for locations.
BTW did you remove the CPU fan as well ? ?

OK...See Above...
NOTE: The header wires...which go to fans and the front connecters are also flimsy enough to be blown off their pins...

I think its not about jumpers or connection. My motherboard dont have jumpers . Is it possible that i have problems with psu? It feels like my gpu is not getting enough power or something. Can i somehow check  if my gpu isnt broken?

2 things you can do to test::

A) Try it with the vid card removed using onboard grafix...

B)Borrow a known good PSU of the same or greater wattage and swap it in there overnite to test...

Did you check if the fan has any wire that needs to be connected to run the fan? Check if it is not unplugged.

Replace the display adapter.

EDIT: Sorry, just read your post. Yeah, I too think the adapter should be replaced. I was just curious if the fan is supposed to spin all the time...
