Cooling fan, 8200 Dimension

Hi guys, quick fan question. Exactly how do the fan/s work in my 8200
Dimension case? Sometimes there's a louder constant (like now, it's
very hot today, but I have fan blowing in cooler air from the room
right across, which has a wall AC unit blowing nice cool air) fan
noise. I suppose this is an extra fan that kicks in when the comp.
hits a higher level of heat?

Any general guidelines on this which would apply to my 8200? Thank
you

Fan has a thermistor/temp. sensor and runs faster depending on the interior
case temps.
