    just sounds like a thermal issue.

    if it's the CPU fan, then might need to put some new thermal compound on

    it's pretty normal for fans to go on and off, especially on the newer mainboards as they manage the temps in the PC.

    check the BIOS settings, they tend for have thermal controls in it, and adjust the levels at which temp the Fan should speed up.
