It's simply responding to the heat of the CPU.
Firstly do the ctrl-alt-del (which you have I think) to see how many processes are running. Eliminate unnecessary ones. Some games do put a high demand on the graphics card/processor - if you have any MG viper installed does the problem still occur?
You ventilation fan may be OK - I suspect you need new heat-transfer paste under your CPU fan. When this gets old it can reflect heat back to the CPU and becomes inefficient, leading fans to be on every time you perform the slightest task as the temperature triggers them as it should. It could be as simple as that.
Obviously check like Max said for any dead cats or family pets stuck in the grilles and fan blades too.
