CPU Fans really loud

I recently built a new computer, somewhat decent specs.



CPU: i7 8700k

GPU: Windforce 1080 GTX (Gigabyte)

Cooler: Kraken x62

Case: S340 Elite White



The problem I'm running into is, when I am playing games, the fans are REALLY loud, almost near vacuum level.

Now, I'm not a hardware expert by any means, but from looking at my CPUID Monitor, temperatures are only near 40C, give or take 5C.

Are the fans supposed to be this loud? Any help is appreciated.

Where did you mount the radiator for the Kraken in your NZXT case? Honestly this case I would not at all have used for an AIO cooler with a 240mm radiator. Looks to me that there is only very limited capacity to get the warm air out of the case in a useful way. This might cause why the fans are running on high RPM even though this would not be needed.
