It seems that whenever i open up any type of program such as the internet or games or other programs i get a very loud revving sound. This also happens at random for no reason it just revs up really loud and nothing is running or nothing has opened without my knowledge. i have tested almost every fan on my PC by either unplugging the fans and opening programs and it still happens as i have turned down my graphics card fans to 10% and up to 100% and the noise stays, if anyone has any clue what it could be or what i should check because i.am.stumped  -_-

you havent checked your psu or cpu fan have you or hdd's

stick your head in the system when its revving

Actually I just remembed im had the same issue before, it likely to be a motherboard fault, try updating the motherboard or reverting to one of the older versions.

ok enough making fun of the way i described it :P but that is literally the only way i can for that god damn noise

It's either fans or any hard drives or your computer has a combustion engine installed. Unless it's more of an electrical sound then it could be your motherboard, gpu, and possibly cpu?

It's kind of hard to trouble shoot if you don't know where the noise is coming from.  You could put your ear up a card board tube (empty paper towel roll) and point it at different parts of the computer and try to figure out where the sound is coming from.  Basically it has to be coming from one of the moving parts: fans, power supply fans, hdd, the pump on the h80i, something in an optical drive.
