This may sound like a silly question. But is there any difference performance wise or compatibility of gpus that are duel fan vs three fan? The rx 5600 xt i wanted was out of stock so i decided to get the three fan. But i’m wondering if there is a difference outside of number of fans.

Check out reviews, both Gamer's Nexus and Techspot/HardwareUnboxed have great roundups that tell you which the best cards are.
Overall 3-fans wil beat 2-fans with temps on average just because of the sheer number of fans, but some 3-fans are shitty and some 2-fans are great so it's not a hard and fast rule.

Fellow noob here. I think the main difference is better cooling with more fans (theoretically) and whether your case fits the longer GPU.
