Probably when you start it the fans are at 100% but as it boots up
they slow down because they're temperature controlled.

IMO its the processor fans too clogged up with dirt. I'd suggest you take out the processor fan and cooling fins and give them a thorough cleaning. DO NOT wash them through water.

Do read up on how to clean before you execute. Good luck.
