Excessive Fan noise

So I have been banging my head against the wall trying to figure out what is causing this excessive fan noise upon boot up with my PC. When powering up it seems the fans go into overdrive even though I can see resources are minimal in task manager for around 5 minutes and than go back to normal

I clean the filter to ensure minimal dust intake as i have three fans, in the front of the PC, in which i use iCUE to monitor the fan speeds and they are hitting around 1600RPM + than goes back down to the 1200RPM mark.

I have checked the fan settings in the BIOS and they are set to quiet setting is applied, just not too sure what else i can check.

Not a deal breaker as the PC has done me wonders for the past 2 years just feels like one day it will go bang.

Don't know where this is the best forum for it but any suggestions would be much appreciated

The first thing to do is monitor temps with HWMonitor when idle and under load:


Fans respond to temps.
