Question GPU Fan speeds at 1450 RPM While IDLE - RTX 4090

Hello I got a new monitor, the Alienware aw3225qf and it's making my 4090 fans constantly spin at 1450rpm while idle. Is this because of the 240hz refresh rate? I do have two 4k monitors hooked up to it. With my previous setup I had one 4k monitor and one 1080p monitor hooked up to the GPU and the gpu fans would be off while idling. Any suggestions or help would be appreciated! Also, I did check NVIDIA control panel to make sure my power settings were set to normal. Thank you in advance!

The fans of the nvidia series 40 usually stop completely when idle. Your problem cannot be answered until you send a screenshot from something like GPU-Z, HWINfo or MSI Afterburner where the frequency, load, temperature, etc. would be shown.
