HP OMEN 15 2020 (Ryzen 5 4600H, GTX 1660Ti) Fan is always running even when idle

So I bought this laptop almost a year ago and I've noticed that the fans keep spinning even when the system is idle and well it creates an annoying noise. Also doesn't it take away from the battery life ? Please someone help from what I could find on the HP forums, this is a genuine problem with Omen 15s powered by Ryzen CPUs i.e. their fans start spinning when the CPU or GPU hits what like almost 50 degrees which is ridiculous and that creates an irritating noise. There is no way to control this fan noise, please someone help me before I go crazy. I get that the fans would spin If I would be doing some intensive task like gaming or some blender renders or some other CPU or GPU intensive application but even when this thing is idle ! its fans keep spinning. I have disabled "the fans always on" option in BIOS but that doesn't work.
