CPU fan help.

When I start up my computer, the fan starts at full speed, slows to a halt, then resumes to full speed running completely normal again. The board works fine, and the computer boots with smooth operation. I don't have a graphics card so it beeps as i'm waiting for one in the mail, but everything seems to be fine as it whirs full speed, slows down, and doesn't stutter after that. I tested it with a graphics card and the computer was fine as well.

 

Specs: 

FX 6300 

Patriot Viper 4GB RAM 

Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 Mobo

Corsair GS600

This is my CPU cooler fan, I'm sorry for the lack of clarification.

Perfectly normal. That's how the motherboard starts up.

 

My old computer (also with a gigabyte motherboard) did the same thing with the CPU fan on startup

i7 4790k | MSI Z97S SLI Krait Edition | G.Skill Ripjaws X 16 GB | Samsung 850 EVO 500 GB | 2x Seagate Barracuda 2TB | MSI GTX 970 Twin Frozr V | Fractal Design R4 | EVGA 650W

A gaming PC for your budget: $800 - $1000 - $1500 - $1800 - $2600 - $9001

It will also spin up to max on shutdown to force some of the hot air out.
