Bearings are probably bad on some of your fans. Fairly easy fix to just replace them...

You just need a new CPU fan, dont take it to a reapair shoip, they are likly to charge you 80-150$ for what will cost you 20$ r under and 5minites of wasy work.

Dude, computers today typically have about 3 fans! Processor, chipset, and power supply. Then you usally have case fans as well. Hehe, and those little chipset fans can be noisy little buggers!
