My GPU fan starts spinning(around 1000-1200RPM - yes I can hear it) when I'm watching a YouTube video only after i close a video game. This only happens in Firefox. Chrome, Edge and Opera stay at around 800RPM. I've tried everything: fresh install, deleted everything; went as far as deleting my Firefox Sync account.

Maybe that video game is very graphic-intensive and you need to wait a little bit for enough RAM to get released.
