It is nothing wrong. The CPU gets very hot when playing and need to be cooled. Are you shure it is the CPU fan? The graphiccard fans are almost always very noisy.

Open your computer and listen from where the noise comes and replace it with a less noisy one. There are plenty of alternatives.

Here you can find fans that are very quiet http://www.zalman.co.kr/

I like buying coolers in econo/power segment. So I can prefer Arctic coolers : http://www.arctic-cooling.com or Pentagram coolers : http://www.pentagram.com.tw

Try removing your processor cooler and changing the thermal grease under it. Or just clean the cooler of the dust. Should help.
