Wraith Prism buzzes after passing 3100 RPM

Hello, I have a problem with my Wraith Prism cooler. When the RPM is at 100% (3050-3125RPM), I hear a monotone buzz that is way louder than the under-3000RPM sound. I have the cooler paired with an Ryzen 5 3600, the cooler is from an Ryzen 7 3800x bought in November 2019.

 

The cooler was NEVER used before putting it on my 3600 (one month ago), so it had 0 hours uptime. The thermal paste is the stock paste, and the motherboard is a Gigabyte B550M Aorus Elite. I have encountered this problem a few days after I bought the new CPU, when exporting a video in Premiere Pro. Now aparently even on Folding@Home I hear the buzz (3100-3125RPM)...

 

Any help is appreciated! Thanks in advance

Most fans are noisy at max rpm. Why not lower the fan speed?
