4,400MHz at 99% Load, 3900 at !00% Load, why does this happen?

I'm using Kraken x61 in silent mode.
Probably the problem is I need to replace stock case fans, I've put a thermometer and temp was 38ºC inside case and I live in a hot country, I'm at 28ºC in my room. Summer time...

In the audio sample you can hear with a louder volume, is like a buzz.

In a Software utility provided by NZXT, CAM
Temps lower a bit with higher fans but it's too noisy

PSU fan should not been spining since rm750x has zero fan mode at low load(it was idle). Air sound is due to smartphone recorder.
