Unplug the thing from the 3Pin power fan socket and plug it onto the 4 Pin CPU fan socket.
It fits fine and will work fine.
Just make sure that the Bracket on the socket matches the Notch given on the CPU Fan Socket and not force it onto the wrong set of the three pins there.
You will notice the CPU fan socket on the mobo does not have the locking notch in the center, it's in the center of three pins on the 4 pin socket. Make sure you connect it to those three pins.

Are you sure that FAN is running 4000RPM? If so it should be louder than anything in your PC... I Thought the max was 2000RPM or 2400RPM...
