PSU fan woes

Just built myself a nice quiet system, only problem is, my PSU fan has this annoying habit of going between low and max speed every 2 seconds. So I constantly hear this wave of noise which is much more annoying than a constant fan sound.

so I was wondering, do you think it would be ok to crack open my PSU, see if the fan has a standard 3 pin connector and, if so, attach it to a fan speed controller and just leave it on medium speed? i've got a spare akasa amber lying around which i would probably use to replace the stock fan.

just wondering if there are any obvious problems with this, please.

yeah, I know about the warranty thing but I'm not that bothered. I'm sure the voltage of a drained PSU won't pose too much of a hazard.

thank you.
