My fan is making too much noise. HelP!

Ive been having problems with the CPU fan. couple of weeks ago, i noticed my CPU fan making a loud noise (never been this loud before). Its as loud as a car engine (not exaggerating) I downloaded a software that measures the CPU fan speed and it was clocked at about 4500 rpm. normally, it would be running at about 1500 rpm but sometimes it would shoot up to 4500 rpm and vibrate my computer case and make a ridiculously loud sound.
I installed a new CPU today (pentium D 935) and i noticed that the cpu fan spins fast more frequently than it used to before i installed the new cpu. (i used the same cpu fan that came with the computer because he cpu fan that came with the cpu did not fit onto my motherboard). I checked my cpu temperature using a software but the highest it has gone up was only 63 degrees Celcius. I would like to know how i can reduce my fan speed and make my computer quieter without damaging my cpu, even if it requires me to buy a new cpu fan/heatsink. thanks in advance
