Default 3.0L Loud (not rough) idle?

So when I first got the car there were a few problems that needed repaired, but I noticed my car idled very nicely and wasn't super loud. When I am sitting idle for a minute or two and have the a/c on I noticed it idles pretty loud which seems right as it is using more power and such to keep the car cooled down. I have noticed more recently however, without a/c or heat being on my car idles pretty loud on its own, it sounds like the fan is working harder than it should be for a low rpm idle. I was wondering if anyone else has noticed this before on their 3.0, is it common for the car as it has a bigger engine, or do I need to be checking something on the car? I might be able to get a video with sound tomorrow, but don't know how accurate the sound will be since I don't have a nice camcorder. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
